A five-year-old boy received a blunt trauma on chest by a kindergarten bus on Feb. 29, 1996. Pulmonary hemorrhage and pericardiac effusion were developed, followed by multi-organ failure threatening his life. All symptoms were improving when pansystolic harsh murmur(Ⅲ/Ⅵ) originating from a tiny ventricular rupture with a blood leak to the pericardial space was auscultated on the 12th day after the...

Cardiac output measurements are among the most important physiologic indices of cardiovascular function. Flow computation is one of the major capabilities of Doppler echocardiography. The basic principle is that the average velocity of blood flow multiplied by the area through which the blood passes yields flow volume. The normal range of diameters and velocities in the ascending and descending aorta were established in 76...
