TLDR
Preliminary observations are presented from cardiologically normal controls and patients with mitral stenosis before and after commissurotomy and superimposed tracings on equal ordinate scales were obtained, thus simplifying the analysis of hemodynamic events.Abstract:
Pressure pulses from the human heart have been recorded at operation by simultaneous needle puncture of the left atrium, left ventricle and aorta. Superimposed tracings on equal ordinate scales were obtained, thus simplifying the analysis of hemodynamic events. Preliminary observations are presented from cardiologically normal controls and patients with mitral stenosis before and after commissurotomy.read more

TL;DR: The fundamental hemodynamic expression of mitral stenosis is the presence of an elevated left atrioventricular filling pressure sure gradient, which ranged from 4 to 20 mm.
