title: [Kineto- and displacement cardiography in heart valve diseases and possible diagnostic values].
abstract: With the help of the method of the kinetocardiography (KKG) inaugurated by Eddleman and the displacement cardiography (DKG) using a high fidelity changer, apart from a control group of 12 test persons with healthy heart 8 different groups of cardiac abnormalities consisting of altogether 88 patients were examined. Displacement cardiography and kinetocardiography did not significantly differ in the course of the curves. The courses of the curves for the cardiac abnormalities proved reproducible. There were significant differences in at least 6 parameters of the curves (p less than 0.05 to p less than 0.001) between the control group and each group with cardiac abnormalities. Linear correlations between the parameters of the curves and invasively gained cardial parameters confirm relations relevant to cardiac abnormalities. In future in possible computer assisted analyses of curves a better rational evaluation in controls of the curves will be the result. The value of this methodology lies in the character of the parameters confirming the cardiac abnormalities. The disadvantage consists in the absent exact quantification of the degree of severity.
