This video depicts how using the apical view and a phased array probe during bedside ultrasound examinations enable clinicians to evaluate cardiac health, structures, and ventricular contractility. Cardiologists often prefer this view because it shows all four heart chambers in relation to each other. This ultrasound view is ideal for identifying cardiomyopathy, pericardial effusion, and cardiac tamponade.
