title: [Normal values of cardiac indices established by separate measurement of the heart after the method of Müller].
abstract: Hearts of 286 deceased (143 males and 143 females) aged 16 to 80 were examined in order to establish the normal values of heart indices. The lethal cases were caused by diseases, not affecting heart weight or by forced death without somatic diseases. The results are presented in tables according to age and sex and are statistically processed. The highest values for the net heart weight, the weight of left and right ventricle and the thickness of their walls were established in the age group 31-40, for both sexes, and the lowest- in the age group of 71-80. The ventricle index, the percentage of the left and the percentage of the right heart ventricle, both in the separate age groups for both sexes, and in the summarized material for both sexes between 16 to 80 years show a marked constancy.
