Popis: 1. 1. The records of sixty-four cases of systolic triple rhythm have been reviewed. The presence or absence of cardiovascular disease and the various characteristics of these sounds were evaluated. 2. 2. Systolic triple rhythms are probably more frequently present than generally suspected and may be heard in a wide variety of cardiac and extracardiac diseases. 3. 3. Early systolic clicks are ejection sounds and are found in patients with congenital and acquired lesions of the semilunar valves and great vessels and are usually associated with a murmur. 4. 4. Mid- or late systolic sounds may or may not be associated with a murmur and are usually not observed in patients with cardiovascular disease. 5. 5. With a thorough understanding of the characteristics of systolic sounds, their significance may be correctly interpreted.
