Thirteen patients with aortic regurgitation (AR) and 13 with mitral regurgitation (MR) were compared quantitatively from the standpoint of their vector-cardiograms (VCG). Vectorcardiographic parameters were also compared with left ventricular angiographic parameters. The QR time interval was longer and the magnitude of the spatial maximum QRS vector was larger in the AR group, but these differences were thought to be attributed to the differences in length of the left ventricular long axis and the left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV). In the AR group, the ratio of the width to the long axis of the QRS loop in the horizontal plane correlated well with the length of the left ventricular long axis and the angle made by the axis from the middle of the aortic valve to the left ventricular apex and the horizontal axis in the lateral view of the angiogram. In the MR group, these correlations were poor. |
