Clinical Significance and Hemodynamic Correlates of the Third Heart Sound Gallop in Aortic Regurgitation
نویسنده
چکیده
The hemodynamic and clinical data of 42 patients with chronic significant aortic regurgitation and 31 normal subjects were examined. Of the patients with aortic regurgitation, 28 had a third heart sound (S,) gallop and 14 did not. There was no significant difference in the severity of regurgitation between the patients with or without an S. gallop. However, all patients with an S, gallop had an abnormally increased left ventricular residual volume and depressed contractile state. These findings were supported by the hemodynamic data of two patients who underwent cardiac catheterization before and after the development of

Clinical significance and hemodynamic correlates of the third heart sound gallop in aortic regurgitation. A guide to optimal timing of cardiac catheterization.
The hemodynamic and clinical data of 42 patients with chronic significant aortic regurgitation and 31 normal subjects were examined. Of the patients with aortic regurgitation, 28 had a third heart sound (S3) gallop and 14 did not. There was no significant difference in the severity of regurgitation between the patients with or without an S3 gallop. However, all patients with an S3 gallop had an...

Background and purpose: The purpose of the study was to asses the natural and clinical course of isolated ventricular defect in children. Materials and methods: Patients and Methods: From 1997 to 2011 we prospectively studied a total of 218 infants and children diagnosed as isolated ventricular septal defects. The Çhi-squar or Fisher exact Test and ÂNÔVÂ were used to compare the difference...

A seven-year-old girl with clinical diagnosis of aortic insufficiency underwent echocardiographic and hemodynamic evaluation and referred for surgery with the same diagnosis. However, at surgery, aorto-Ieft ventricular tunnel was found and repaired successfully. Review of echocardiogram and catheterization data revealed interesting findings to differentiate this rare entity from congenital...

متن کاملTransmission of audible praecordial gallop sounds to right supraclavicular fossa.
To evaluate the significance of audible gallop sounds in the right supraclavicular fossa we performed simultaneous external heart sound recordings at 50 and 100 Hz at the left ventricular apex, left sternal border, and right supraclavicular fossa in 50 patients with audible gallop sounds at the left ventricular apex. In each patient heart sounds were recorded with a simultaneous jugular phlebog...
