The ballistocardiogram in myocardial infarction.

ECG and Bcg studies have been carried out on 40 youths, aged 18-23, suffering from mycoplasmic pneumonia; in 19 of them mild Bcg changes were established. The frequencyof ECG changes is less-12 patients. The pathological deflections in Ecg and Bcg in all patients normalize before the control examination, which takes place 30 days after discharge of the patients from hospital.

[Arrhythmia in patients with mitral valve prolapse syndrome and the status of the sympathetic nervous system].

The study aimed at evaluating a possible relationship between the adrenergic system tone determined with the excretion of catecholamines with the urine and an incidence of the ventricular arrhythmias in patients with the mitral valve prolapse. The study included 20 patients (13 women and 7 men aged between 20 and 50 years; mean = 31.6 years) with the mitral valve prolapse syndrome diagnosed with the aid of the patients' history, physical examinations and echocardiography. Echocardiograms have shown anterior mitral leaflet prolapse in 7 patients, posterior mitral leaflet prolapse in 8 patients, and both mitral leaflets prolapse in the remaining 5 patients. Daily excretion of adrenaline and noradrenaline was measured with Van Euler and Lishajko's fluorimetric technique. Cardiac arrhythmias were determined with a 24-hour ECG monitoring and classified according to Lown. Premature ventricular contractions of class I were seen in 1 patient, of class II in 5, class III in 1, class IV in 2, and class V in 3 patients. Holter monitoring technique did not show the arrhythmias in 8 patients. Daily adrenaline and noradrenaline excretion with the urine was within the normal values (3.2-30.8 ug and 0.2-16.2 ug, respectively) in all examined patients. Daily urine noradrenaline was higher in patients with serious ventricular arrhythmias (Lown's class V) than mean values in the whole examined group.
