Unlike a standard transthoracic echocardiogram, where the ultrasound probe is placed on the chest, TEE uses a thin, flexible probe that is gently passed through the mouth into the esophagus (food pipe). Because the esophagus lies directly behind the heart, TEE provides exceptionally clear images without interference from the ribs, lungs, or chest wall.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At <\/span><b>RS Abdi Waluyo<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, TEE is performed by experienced cardiologists using advanced imaging technology. The examination provides detailed visualization of the heart chambers, heart valves, blood vessels, and other cardiac structures, helping physicians diagnose complex heart conditions and guide treatment decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><b>Why is Transesophageal Echocardiography Performed?<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your doctor may recommend a TEE to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Evaluate heart valve diseases, such as valve narrowing (stenosis) or leakage (regurgitation).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Detect blood clots within the heart, particularly in patients with atrial fibrillation.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diagnose infections involving the heart valves (infective endocarditis).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assess congenital heart defects.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Evaluate abnormalities of the aorta and other major blood vessels.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identify the cause of a stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assess heart function when standard echocardiography does not provide sufficient detail.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guide catheter-based procedures, structural heart interventions, or cardiac surgery.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TEE provides highly detailed images that are often essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><b>Details of the Test<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TEE is a minimally invasive procedure performed in a monitored clinical setting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before the examination:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will be asked not to eat or drink for approximately <\/span><b>6 hours<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> before the procedure.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inform your doctor about any allergies, medications, bleeding disorders, or swallowing problems.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dentures, removable dental appliances, and oral prostheses should be removed before the examination.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An intravenous (IV) line will be inserted to administer sedative medication if needed.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your throat will be sprayed with a local anesthetic to reduce discomfort during probe insertion.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your healthcare team will explain the procedure, answer your questions, and ask you to sign a consent form before the examination.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><b>What Happens During the Test?<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the procedure:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will lie comfortably on your left side.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels will be continuously monitored.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A local anesthetic spray will numb your throat, and a mild sedative may be administered to help you relax.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A bite guard will be placed to protect your teeth and the ultrasound probe.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cardiologist will gently guide the flexible ultrasound probe through your mouth into your esophagus.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Detailed images of your heart will be obtained from multiple angles.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the examination is complete, the probe will be carefully removed.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The procedure usually takes <\/span><b>20 to 40 minutes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, although your total visit may be longer to allow for preparation and recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><b>What Should I Expect After the Test?<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following the examination:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will remain under observation until the effects of the sedative have worn off.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your throat may feel mildly sore or numb for a few hours.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should not eat or drink until your swallowing reflex has fully returned, as instructed by your healthcare team.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because sedatives may affect your alertness, you should arrange for someone to drive you home.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most patients can resume their normal activities the following day, unless advised otherwise by their doctor.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><b>What Are the Risks?<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TEE is considered a safe procedure when performed by experienced healthcare professionals. However, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These may include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Temporary sore throat or hoarseness.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mild discomfort during swallowing.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reaction to sedative medication.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minor bleeding from the mouth or throat.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rare injury to the mouth, teeth, throat, esophagus, or stomach.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Very rare complications such as aspiration or abnormal heart rhythm.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your healthcare team will carefully monitor you throughout the procedure to minimize these risks.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><b>Results and Follow-Up<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The images obtained during TEE are carefully reviewed by your cardiologist to

necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1><b>When Will I Receive My Results?<\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your cardiologist may discuss the preliminary findings immediately after the examination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A comprehensive report is generally available within <\/span><b>24 to 48 hours<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, depending on the complexity of the study.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your doctor will explain the results and discuss any recommended treatment or follow-up care.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr
