ARDMS AE-Adult-Echocardiography Exam Syllabus Topics:

Topic
Details

Topic 1

• Clinical Care and Safety: This section of the exam measures skills of adult echocardiography technicians in applying clinical care principles and safety protocols. It includes evaluating patient history and external data, preparing patients including fasting state and intravenous line management, proper patient positioning, EKG lead placement, blood pressure measurement, and ergonomic techniques. Candidates are expected to identify critical echocardiographic findings, know contraindications for procedures, and be able to respond and manage medical emergencies that may arise during echocardiographic exams.

Topic 2

• Measurement Techniques, Maneuvers, and Sonographic Views: This section of the exam measures skills of adult echocardiography technicians in performing accurate cardiac measurements, conducting provocative maneuvers, and obtaining optimized sonographic imaging views. It involves applying 2D, 3D, M-mode, and Doppler techniques to measure heart valves, chambers, and vessels, including the aortic valve, mitral valve, left and right ventricles, atria, pulmonary artery, and shunt ratios. Candidates must instruct patients in maneuvers such as Valsalva, cough, sniff, and squat. They should also be proficient in acquiring standard echocardiographic views including apical, parasternal, subcostal, and suprasternal notch views.

Topic 3

• Anatomy and Physiology: This section of the exam measures skills of adult echocardiography technicians and covers knowledge and abilities related to normal cardiac anatomy and physiology. It includes assessing great vessels like the aorta and pulmonary arteries, recognizing anatomic variants of the heart, and evaluating cardiac chambers, pericardium, valve structures, and vessels of arterial and venous return. Candidates must document normal systolic and diastolic function, normal valve function and measurements, the phases of the cardiac cycle, normal Doppler changes with respiration, and appearance of arterial and venous waveforms. This also involves assessing the normal hemodynamic response to stress testing and maneuvers such as Valsalva, respiratory, handgrip, and postural changes.

Topic 4

• Pathology: This section of the exam measures skills of adult echocardiography technicians and focuses on identifying and evaluating abnormal physiology and perfusion and postoperative conditions. It includes assessment of ventricular aneurysms, aortic and valve abnormalities, arrhythmias, cardiac masses, diastolic dysfunction, endocarditis, ischemic diseases, cardiomyopathies, congenital anomalies, and postoperative valve repair or replacement and intracardiac devices. Candidates must demonstrate ability to recognize abnormal Doppler signals, EKG changes, wall motion abnormalities, and a wide range of cardiac pathologies including pulmonary hypertension and septal defects.

Topic 5

• Instrumentation, Optimization, and Contrast: This section of the exam measures skills of adult echocardiography technicians related to use and optimization of ultrasound instrumentation and the application of contrast agents. Candidates should recognize imaging artifacts, utilize non-imaging transducers, and adjust ultrasound console settings for optimal imaging and Doppler recordings. Knowledge of harmonic imaging, principles of contrast agents, and the safe and effective use of saline and echo-enhancing contrast agents is essential. Candidates must also be able to optimize images when using contrast agents to ensure diagnostic quality.

ARDMS AE Adult Echocardiography Examination Sample Questions (Q133-Q138):

NEW QUESTION # 133
What does the Qp represent in an atrial septal defect shunt ratio measurement (Qp/Qs)?

• A. Stroke volume of the RVOT
• B. Right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) time velocity integral
• C. Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) time velocity integral
• D. Stroke volume of the LVOT

Answer: A

Explanation:
In the calculation of the shunt ratio Qp/Qs, Qp represents pulmonary blood flow, which is calculated as the stroke volume of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT). Stroke volume is obtained by measuring the RVOT cross-sectional area and the RVOT time velocity integral (VTI).
Qp (pulmonary flow) divided by Qs (systemic flow) quantifies the magnitude of left-to-right shunting in atrial septal defects and other congenital heart diseases.
This method is described in the "Textbook of Clinical Echocardiography, 6e", Chapter on Shunt Quantification and Flow Calculations#20:360-365Textbook of Clinical Echocardiography#.

NEW QUESTION # 134
What potential source of error is the greatest when calculating the aortic valve area by the continuity equation?

• A. Aortic valve planimetry in parasternal short axis
• B. Left ventricular outflow tract velocity recorded with pulsed Doppler
• C. Aortic jet velocity by continuous wave Doppler
• D. Left ventricular outflow tract diameter

Answer: D

Explanation:
The continuity equation calculates aortic valve area (AVA) by equating stroke volume through the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) to stroke volume through the aortic valve. The equation is:
AVA = (Cross-sectional area of LVOT) × (LVOT VTI) / (Aortic valve VTI)
The cross-sectional area of the LVOT is derived from the LVOT diameter, using the formula # × (diameter/2)
