The systolic time intervals were measured on 388 normal chidren, ranging from 8 months to 15years of age by using simultaneous recordings of the electrocardiogram, phonocardiogram and carotid or axillary arterial pulse. The statistical methods were applied to study the influence of age, sex and heart rate(HR) on these intervals. The results were as follows. 1. The regression equation of QS2was -1. 60HR+480+/-16 msec in males and -1.68HR+492+/-15 msec in females, respectively. 2. The regression equation of LVET was -1. 13 HR+359+/-10 msec in males and -1.21 HR+369+/-13 msec in females, respectively. 3. The regression equation of PEP was -0.58 HR+133+/-9 msec in males and -0.58 HR+128+/-9 msec in females, respectively. 4. The PEP/IVET ratio was 0.29+/-0.04 in males and 0.30+/-0.06 in females. 5. There was no sex difference in various systolic time intervals, and age had a slight influence but it was negligible for clinical use. 6. According to the regression equations of QS2, LVET, and PEP to the heart rate, QS2, and LVET were found to be more inversely correlated with heart rate than PEP.

A case of the neurovascalar island pedicle graft for restoration of sensation after amputation of both thumb fingertip pulp in 17 years old male patient is presented at Department of Orthopedic Surgery, College of Medicine, Korea University. Tho island pedicle graft is suggested by Esser firstly and it is very difficult and excitement. At postoperative follow up check within one month, we obtained very good result without other complications.

Patients with severe congestive heart failure due to rheumatic heart disease generally have both reduced cardiac output and increased pulmonary and systemic venous pressures. A study was therefore made of the use of vasodilator therapy with orally administered hydralazine, which acts on arteriolar resistance vessels and thus reduces afterload. 55 children aged from 4 years old to 15 year old were divided into two groups. Group I received oral hydralazine(4mg/kg/kay in 4 divided doses) in addition to digoxin therapy for mean duration of 10.5 months. Group II received oral digoxin only. The hemodynamic results using M-mode echocardiography, chest X-ray, and EKG between two groups were analyzed. 1) 4(78%) of 55 patients had only mitral valve involvement and another 12 patients had double valve involvement and all the patients belonged to functional class III or IV fo New York heart Association. 2) Left venticular end-diastolic dimensions and the height of R in V6 on EKG were not changed significantly in both groups. 3) Shortening fraction, LPEP/LVET, and RPEP/RVET were markedly improved in both groups, but the degree of improvement in group I was more significant than in group II. 4) 21(80%) of 26 patients in group I showed significant improvement in functional class(t=1.92, 0.05 Adolescent ; Cardiac Output ; Child* ; Child, Preschool ; Digoxin ; Echocardiography ; Electrocardiography ; Estrogens, Conjugated (USP)* ; Heart ; Heart Failure* ; Hemodynamics ; Humans ; Hydralazine ; Mitral Valve ; Rheumatic Heart Disease ; Thorax ; Venous Pressure
