THE DIASTOLIC MITRAL HEART MURMUR.

Diastolic murmur of complete heart block.

tribution. More important, however, the possible existence of correlation among data was not addressed. It is generally known that correlation among data would seriously affect the results of analysis of variance. Therefore, it may be more appropriate to use a time series of analysis technique rather than the analysis of variance method. From the computational formula of the 95% confidence limi...

CASE REPORTS The Genesis of the Diastolic Murmur of Complete Heart Block Phono-Echocardiographic Observations

A 72-year-old man with calcific aortic stenosis and complete heart block was noted to have an intermittent diastolic murmur. Using combined echocardiography and phonocardiography, it was demonstrated that the murmur occurred while the mitral valve was closing. This suggested that antegrade flow across a closing mitral orifice is of etiologic importance in the production of the murmur. Atrial so...

The apical systolic murmur in mitral stenosis.

The purpose of this work was to determine how reliable a guide an apical systolic murmur can be to the finding at mitral valvotomy of incidental mitral regurgitation complicating dominant mitral stenosis. The history of the systolic murmur in mitral stenosis is a confused one, since general agreement was not reached about the timing of systolic and diastolic murmurs in mitral stenosis for nearl...
