Echocardio Notes

About

Echocardio Notes is an application dedicated exclusively for educational purposes and intended to healthcare professionals who practice echocardiography. Despite many echo apps currently available, we felt the need of having an app which provided the most complete set of information with a clear, quick and intuitive interface. We have compiled our notes and created this app, which is designed to be a pocket reference for most of the necessary measurements and techniques, based on the most cited literature. All content is adapted from guidelines, recommendations and articles written by brilliant echocardiography experts throughout the world, whose great work we are deeply grateful for. All sources are duly cited with a direct link provided in the References section throughout the app.

We decided to make the app available free of charge because we are passionate about echocardiography and believe this is a virtuous way to help improve knowledge and quality in echocardiography in Portugal and, hopefully, around the word.

All content is available offline. Continuous improvement with updates and new measures will feed the application.
