“ 求同存异,优势互补” 的心电图与心脏超声

ECG and heart ultrasound:Seeking a common ground while reserving differences,and complementing each other's advantages

心电图与超声心动图均为心脏疾病的常规检查,在心脏疾病诊疗中各有独特的优势。心电图聚焦心脏跳动的节律、频率以及心电传导情况,而超声心动图擅长于显示心脏结构和形态(如心脏瓣膜)、各房室大小、血流速度和方向、心脏收缩及舒张期的心室容积变化。在临床实践中,二者求同存异,优势互补。本文简要介绍了心电图和超声心动图的发明过程,重点阐述它们各自的临床应用优势,强调二者优势互补在临床实践中的重要作用。

Electrocardiogram(ECG)and echocardiography are both routine examinations for heart diseases with unique advantages in the diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases.ECG focuses on the rhythm and frequency of heartbeats,and electrical conduction while echocardiography is good at displaying the structure and morphology of the heart such as the valve,the size of each chamber,the speed and direction of blood flow,and ventricular volume changes during the systolic and diastolic periods of the heart.In clinical practice,the two seek a common ground while they reserve differences,and complement each other􀆳s advantages.This article briefly introduces the invention of ECG and echocardiography,focuses on their respective advantages in clinical application,and emphasizes the important role of their complementation in clinical practice.
