Summary

This study looked at whether a device called USCOM, which uses sound waves from the neck, gives similar heart measurements as standard echocardiography in children under anesthesia. 57 children aged 6 months to 15 years having planned surgery took part. The goal was to see if USCOM could be a simpler alternative for monitoring heart function during surgery.
