OBJECTIVES: Handheld ultrasound devices (HUDs) have previously been limited to grayscale imaging without options for left ventricle (LV) quantification. We aimed to study the feasibility and reliability of automatic measurements of mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE) by HUDs. METHODS: An algorithm that automatically measured MAPSE from live grayscale recordings was implemented in a HUD. Twenty patients at a university hospital were examined by either a cardiologist or a sonographer. Standard echocardiography using a high-end scanner was performed. The apical 4-chamber view was recorded 4 times by both echocardiography and the HUD. MAPSE was measured by M-mode and color tissue Doppler (cTD) during echocardiography and automatically by the HUD. RESULTS: The automatic method underestimated mean MAPSE ± SD versus M-mode (9.6 ± 2.2 versus 10.9 ± 2.6 mm; difference, 1.2 ± 1.4 mm, P < .005). The difference between the automatic and cTD measurements was not significant (0.8 ± 1.8 mm; P = .073). The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) between automatic and M-mode measurements was 0.85, and 0.81 for cTD measurements. There was good agreement between the methods, and the intra- and inter-rater ICCs were excellent for all methods (≥0.86). CONCLUSIONS: In this novel study evaluating automatic quantification of LV longitudinal function by HUD, we showed the high feasibility and reliability of the method. Compared to M-mode imaging, the automatic method underestimated MAPSE by 8% to 10%, but the difference with cTD imaging was nonsignificant. We conclude that this study's method for automatic quantitative assessment of LV function can be integrated in HUDs.
