Abstract:
The results of Doppler haemodynamic investigations in electrically burned patients are described in this paper. A comparison with other burned patients is also provided. The following differences were found between the two groups: 1. diminished compliance of the myocardium in electrically burned patients; 2. markedly elevated ejection time measured by flow time. The results remain unclear and require further long-term investigations.
