In the 2017, "Cairo Accord on Rheumatic Heart Disease-From Molecules to The Global Community" experts from endemic areas enumerated an approach to reduce the population burden of rheumatic heart disease. The 10 key recommendations include immediate logistical objectives as well as domains for further study. Echocardiographic population screening programs were relegated to research alone. Given the large body of supporting data, relegating echo screening to an investigational modality is an opportunity lost.
2017年，来自流行地区的专家在《开罗风湿性心脏病协议：从分子到全球社区》中列举了一种减轻风湿性心脏病人群负担的方法。这10项关键建议包括近期后勤目标以及有待进一步研究的领域。超声心动图人群筛查项目仅被列为研究项目。鉴于大量的支持数据，将超声筛查列为一种研究方式是错失的机会。
