Screening for pulmonary arteriovenous malformations: contrast echocardiography versus pulse oximetry.

Scandinavian cardiovascular journal : SCJ - 1 Jun 2000

Oxhøj H, Kjeldsen A D, Nielsen G

Abstract excerpt

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) cause right-to-left shunt and imply risk of paradoxical embolism and cerebral abscess. These complications can be prevented by appropriate treatment. Detection of PAVMs is therefore important, so simple and reliable screening methods are needed for this purpose. The aim of this investigation was to compare pulse oximetry and contrast echocardiography as screening tools...
