This chapter will introduce the key features to address in sepsis using echocardiography, including: volaemic status (requirement for, and tolerance to, volume); alteration in myocardial function; when sepsis is associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome and assessment of right heart function for potential extracorporeal support; differentiation of pulmonary oedema from acute respiratory distress syndrome; changes in pulmonary artery systolic pressures and/or pulmonary vascular resistance; and exclusion/diagnosis of the underlying cause of sepsis, including endocarditis.
