Guidelines for the Echocardiographic Assessment of the Right Heart in Adults: A Report from the American Society of Echocardiography Endorsed by the European Association of Echocardiography, a registered branch of the European Society of Cardiology, and the Canadian Society of Echocardiography

TLDR
The Society of Echocardiography (SEDC) is an educational activity for cardiovascular physicians and cardiac sonographers with a knowledge base in the field of echo-cardiography as discussed by the authors.
Abstract
on Statement: Society of Echocardiography is accreditedby theAccreditationCouncil for edical Education to provide continuingmedical education for physicians. n Society of Echocardiography designates this educational activity for of 1.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits . Physicians should only claim credit te with the extent of their participation in the activity. CCI recognize ASE’s certificates and have agreed to honor the credit hours registry requirements for sonographers. Society of Echocardiography is committed to ensuring that its educational ll sponsored educational programs are not influencedby the special interests ation or individual, and itsmandate is to retain only those authors whose fists canbeeffectively resolved tomaintain thegoals andeducational integrity y. While a monetary or professional affiliation with a corporation does not fluence an author’s presentation, the Essential Areas and policies of the ire that any relationships that could possibly conflict with the educational activity be resolved prior to publication and disclosed to the audience. f faculty and commercial support relationships, if any, have been indicated. ience: is designed for all cardiovascular physicians and cardiac sonographers with erest and knowledge base in the field of echocardiography; in addition, reschers, clinicians, intensivists, and other medical professionals with a spein cardiac ultrasound will find this activity beneficial.
