Abstract

The echocardiographic parameters of the central and intracardiac hemodynamics were measured in 26 patients with rheumatic heart disease and in 12 healthy subjects using techniques of M-scanning and two-dimensional echocardiography with the subsequent analysis of the correlation between the parameters. The degree of correlation between the hemodynamic parameters depends on the severity of the valvular damage to the heart and the dilatation of its cavities. Patients with combined mitral-aortal disease showed no correlation between the ejection fraction and the degree of the shortening of the anterior-posterior size of the left ventricle.
