Investigation of genesis of gallop sounds in dogs by quantitative phonocardiography and digital frequency analysis.

چکیده
Several investigators have noted external gallop sounds to be of higher amplitude than their corresponding internal sounds (S3 and S4). In this study we hoped to determine if S3 and S4 are transmitted in the same manner as S1. In 11 closed-chest dogs, external (apical) and left ventricular pressures and sounds were recorded simultaneously with transducers with identical sensitivity and frequency responses. Volume and pressure overload and positive and negative inotropic drugs were used to generate gallop sounds. Recordings were made in the control state and after the various interventions. S3 and S4 were recorded in 17 experiments each. The amplitude of the external S1 was uniformly higher than that of internal S1 and internal gallop sounds were inconspicuous. With use of Fourier transforms, the gain function was determined by comparing internal to external S1. By inverse transform, the amplitude of the internal gallop sounds was predicted from external sounds. The internal sounds of significant amplitude were predicted in many instances, but the actual recordings showed no conspicuous sounds. The absence of internal gallop sounds of expected amplitude as calculated from the external gallop sounds and the gain function derived from the comparison of internal and external S1 make it very unlikely that external gallop sounds are derived from internal sounds.

متن کاملThe Genesis of Gallop Sounds: Investigation
The genesis of gallop sounds was investigated in 12 patients by simultaneous measurement of external apexcardiographic (ACG) and left ventricular (LV) pressure, dP/dt, and sound using infinite time constant piezo-resistive pressure transducers with identical sensitivity and frequency responses. Absolute intensity of internal and external sound was quantified. The external transducer was applied...
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...
متن کاملThe genesis of the third and fourth heart sounds. A pressure-flow study in dogs.
To examine the mechanism of mitral flow deceleration in diastole and its potential influence on the genesis of third (S3) and fourth (S4) heart sounds, we simultaneously recorded left atrial and left ventricular pressures (micromanometers), mitral flow velocity (electromagnetic catheter-tip flow velocity meter), and internal and external phonocardiograms in 25 open-chest dogs. Diastolic time in...
متن کاملGenesis of diastolic sounds in mitral incompetence.
A third heart sound, followed by a diminuendo diastolic murmur, is generally accepted as characteristic of all but the most trivial grades of mitral incompetence. The genesis of these physical signs has remained controversial despite many human and animal studies. There are two main schools of thought concerning the origin ofthese sounds. The first or "extravalvar" school originated in Potain's...
