Cardiac auscultation revealed a systolic ejection murmur grade III/VI at the left sternal border. Pulmonary auscultation was normal. Chest X-ray showed no evidence of pathological images in both lung ...

Background The presence of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) in congenital heart disease (CHD) patients is not well described. Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic CHD associated with ...

Special Study Phonocardiographic study and recording of the external carotid pulse were undertaken. Figure 1 demonstrates the typical "diamond-shaped" early systolic ejection murmur.

ACCORDING to the description of Duroziez, as presented by Major1 and by Willius and Keys,2 the intermittent to-and-fro crural murmur associated with aortic insufficiency is produced by blood flow i ...

TOWN OF CHESTER, Wis. (WKOW) -- The Dodge County Sheriff's Office is investigating the death of a golden retriever. On Tuesday night, officers were called to a home on Oakwood Run in the Town of ...

Transthoracic echocardiogram identified characteristics of severe generalized left ventricular systolic dysfunction, with an ejection fraction of 20%, significant secondary mitral regurgitation ...

Predictors of an adverse event included emergency operation (odds ratio: 6.8), ejection fraction less than 45% (p < 0.001) and elevated right ventricular systolic pressure by 40 mmHg or more (p ...

The opposition parties of Australia are in a dire position at both state and federal levels. Here's how a party spirals into chaos, and what the impact is on our politics.

Background: Prolonged steady state exercise can lead to a decrease in left ventricular (LV) function as well as promote the release of cardiac troponin T (cTnT). There is limited information on the ...

Dana Huang; Judy WM Cheng Disclosures The Annals of Pharmacotherapy. 2010;44 (12):1933-1945.

A quantitative analysis was made of hearts with tetralogy of Fallot without operative procedures, with pulmonary atresia, with total repair, and with old Potts anastomosis and total repair. Useful ...
