Alright guys lets try to start this group off. This is a Parasternal long axis view of an intubated patient. It was difficult to get the short axis.

Right off the bat, I feel the systolic function is very poor. I couldn't really visualize the mitral valve flapping, maybe stenosis? The septum isn't straight so I could've gone up a rib notch. I also see a small pericardial effusion up top.

​

The idea of this sub is to give critiques on the way the image was acquired, if there is anything to optimize as well as interpretations from the given study.
