[Systolic ejection murmur in the differential diagnosis of isolated aortic insufficiency and its association with stenosis].
As assessment of the value of systolic ejection murmur in the differentiation of valvular insufficiency with and without stenosis was carried out by means of ECG, polycardiography and M-mode echocardiography in 60 patients with aortic valve disease divided into 35 subjects with and 25 without stenosis. Attention was directed to the configuration of the murmur, with particular reference to the proto-, meso- or telesystolic location of its acme and the Q-acme distance. It was found that the acme was meso or telesystolic in all cases where stenosis was present, whereas it was proto- or very initially mesosystolic in its absence.
