Diastolic murmurs include aortic and pulmonic regurgitation (early diastolic), and mitral or tricuspid stenosis (mid-late diastolic). Tricuspid stenosis is very rare and is discussed further in ...
The timing of the Flint murmur has been described as both presystolic and mid-diastolic, the majority of observers considering it to be presystolic (Table 2). In patients with aortic regurgitation ...
Acute aortic regurgitation will cause a very short, early diastolic decrescendo murmur with the aortic and ... and the ratio of jet cross-sectional area [CSA] to LVOT CSA) quantitative parameters ...
THE primary purpose of this report is to emphasize the relation of a high-pitched "squeaking" or "musical" systolic murmur to aortic stenosis and calcification of the aortic valve. This is not so ...
Doppler-derived mitral inflow indices reflect left ventricular (LV) filling pressures but often vary with age. Diastolic filling is impaired in LV pressure overload states. The objective of this ...
