Clinical Effects of Echocardiographic and Multilayer Spiral CT Examination and its Application in Children with Complex Congenital Heart Disease
Objective:To observe the clinical effects of echocardiography and multislice spiral CT examination and application in children with complex congenital heart disease.Methods:Clinical data of 50 children with complex congenital heart disease admitted to the hospital from January 2011 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.All children underwent echocardiography and multislice spiral CT on admission,and the diagnostic effect of the two examinations on complex congenital heart disease was analyzed using surgical pathology as the gold standard.Results:A total of 178 cardiac malformations were found in 50 children,including 71 intracardiac malformations and 107 extracardiac malformations.The detection rate of extracardiac malformations by multislice spiral CT was 98.13%,which was higher than that of 84.11%by echocardiography,and the difference was statistically significant(x2=11.321,P<0.05).The detection rate of intracardiac malformations was 95.77%by multislice spiral CT and 92.96%by echocardiography,and the difference was not statistically significant(x2=0.133,P>0.05).Conclusion:Multislice spiral CT and echocardiography have higher positive detection rates for complex congenital heart disease,but multislice spiral CT is superior to echocardiography in the diagnosis of extracardiac malformations.
