Abstract

The frequency spectrum of the metallic closing sound and its loudness were measured by non invasive techniques in 66 patients. They had examined a total of 7 Carbomedics valve, 10 Duromedics valve, 11 St. Jude heart valve in mitral position and 8 Carbomedics, 10 Duromedics, 20 St. Jude heart valve prostheses functioning normally in aortic position. Statistical comparison of the loudness from sound produced by the three valves in each position, the following; The Carbomedics valve has the lowest average loudness, followed by the St. Jude medical valve, and finally the Edward Duromedics valve. And we analysis the changing factor of the loudness of valve sound, only the velocity of the flow through the valve influenced to the valve sound.
