Observations on the capability of the electrocardiogram to detect left ventricular function in chronic severe aortic regurgitation.

abstract：:An inventory has been made of the practice of angioplasty in 14 European countries from 1985 onwards. The numbers of procedures performed varied in 1985 from 3 to 186 per million inhabitants, in 1991 from 52 to 716. All countries showed a steady increase, but the highest performer. Belgium, achieved only 55% of the nu...
