Subject Areas on Research
- Association between phonocardiographic third and fourth heart sounds and objective measures of left ventricular function.
- Body surface isopotential maps in normal children, ages 4 to 14 years.
- Detection of tricuspid regurgitation with two-dimensional echocardiography and peripheral vein injections.
- Diagnostic characteristics of combining phonocardiographic third heart sound and systolic time intervals for the prediction of left ventricular dysfunction.
- Functional abnormalities in isolated left bundle branch block. The effect of interventricular asynchrony.
- Intracardiac pressure-flow dynamics in isolated ventricular septal defects.
- Mechanical correlates of the third heart sound.
- Methodological guidelines for impedance cardiography.
- Mitral stenosis: mitral dome excursion at M1 and the mitral opening snap--the concept of reciprocal heart sounds.
- Musical murmurs: clinical implications, long-term prognosis, and echo-phonocardiographic features.
- Performance of phonoelectrocardiographic left ventricular systolic time intervals and B-type natriuretic peptide levels in the diagnosis of left ventricular dysfunction.
- Physiology of the third heart sound: novel insights from tissue Doppler imaging.
- Relationship between accurate auscultation of a clinically useful third heart sound and level of experience.
- S3 detection as a diagnostic and prognostic aid in emergency department patients with acute dyspnea.
- The ballooning mitral valve in patients with the "precordial honk" or "whoop".
- Time, now, to recover the fun in the physical examination rather than abandon it.
