title: [Proceedings: Determination of the severity of aortic insufficiency with pulsed Doppler-ultrasound in the common carotid artery].
abstract: The severity of aortic incompetence can be assessed by quantifying the alteration of blood flow in the common carotid artery. The use of a pulsed multichannel ultrasonic Doppler device in 41 patients with aortic valve disease yielded a satisfactory correlation between the ultrasonic parameters and the maximal aortic regurgitation distance. Correlations between Doppler parameters and regurgitation (thermodilution) were less strict.
