Mechanical circulatory support options remain limited for pediatric patients, especially neonates. The only U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved pediatric device remains the Berlin Heart EXCOR, which unfortunately carries with it a 20-30% risk of neurologic complications, such as strokes. We demonstrate a new technique of direct echocardiographic color-Doppler imaging of the Berlin Heart valves to detect valve regurgitation. Increases in valve regurgitation could indicate issues with pump-valve thrombosis or increased afterload leading to valve insufficiency. Early recognition of valve thrombosis or insufficiency may reduce neurologic complications and lead to timely pump adjustments or replacement.
