Additional considerations for rescue transesophageal echocardiography*

LV: left ventricle; RA: right arterial; RV: right ventricle; IVS: interventricular septum; SV: stroke volume; TEE: transesophageal echocardiography; HR: heart rate; PIPs: peak inspiratory pressures; RVOT: right ventricular outflow tract; PA: pulmonary artery; VAE: venous air embolism; TG: transgastric; RCA: right coronary artery; Cx: circumflex (artery); BP: blood pressure; STEMI: ST elevation myocardial infarction; LAD: left anterior descending (artery); MR: mitral regurgitation; AMVL: anterior mitral valve leaflet; LVOT: left ventricular outflow tract; AI: aortic insufficiency; PFO: patent foramen ovale; ASD: atrial septal defect; RWMAs: regional wall motion abnormalities; dP/dt: rate of rise of LV pressure during systole.
