Also, sweep speed is frequently ignored. Use a higher sweep speed to accurately trace the envelope. In my experience, even AI makes mistakes in measuring VTI using lower sweep speeds. #POCUS

Mild the ANGLE when performing ANY Doppler-based measurement to obtain maximum Doppler shift (accurate velocities). #POCUS

If you’re measuring LVOT diameter, be careful, any small error gets squared in the πr² equation. One workaround? Grab the diameter from a previous echo report. And if you’re just assessing fluid responsiveness, you don’t even need the diameter, just track VTI changes before and
