چکیده

An early diastolic sound in a patient with apical left ventricular disease is reported. Pulsed Doppler echocardiography showed blood flow within the left ventricular cavity during the isovolumic relaxation period whose peak flow velocity was synchronous with the onset of this diastolic sound. Because it occurred before filling started it could not have been either a third or fourth heart sound. It must thus represent a distinct and apparently unrecognised class of diastolic sound.

Unusual left ventricular wall motion and a loud added sound during the isovolumic relaxation period in a patient with hypertensive heart disease.

A 69 year old woman with hypertensive heart disease had a loud added sound which coincided with a sudden interruption of the early diastolic motion of the left ventricular posterior wall, as visualised by M mode echocardiography, and came just before early diastolic transmitral flow, as measured by a pulsed Doppler echocardiogram. Early diastolic motion velocity from the base to the middle of t...

A New Method to Improve Automated Classification of Heart Sound Signals: Filter Bank Learning in Convolutional Neural Networks

Introduction: Recent studies have acknowledged the potential of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in distinguishing healthy and morbid samples by using heart sound analyses. Unfortunately the performance of CNNs is highly dependent on the filtering procedure which is applied to signal in their convolutional layer. The present study aimed to address this problem by a...

Intensity of heart sounds in the evaluation of patients following myocardial infarction.

The amplitude and intensity of heart sounds were measured at the chest wall in 25 patients with acute myocardial infarction in order to determine what meaningfUl clinical information can be derived from observing the intensity of the heart sounds. During the early period after infarction, the first heart sound (Si), the aortic component of the second heart sound (A2), and the pulmonary componen...

The effects of acute ischemia on the isovolumic index.

The isovolumic index is the ratio of the duration of isovolumic contraction (IVC) and relaxation (IVR) divided by ejection time (ET), and has been proposed as a more sensitive descriptor of ventricular performance than the systolic time index, which ignores the period of isovolumic relaxation. To determine the effects of acute ischemia on these indices, IVC, IVR, and ET were measured in seven o...
