Abstract

WORK upon Korotkov's sounds led me1 to the conclusion that the arterial system could be regarded as an energy transmission line, into which the heart launches energy at two levels, namely, waves with a frequency of 3–15 c.p.s. and waves with a frequency of 256–512 c.p.s. The theory required that the sound waves, resulting from forces of cavitation, be transmitted throughout the arteries, with a velocity much higher than that of the waves of low frequency, to explain the development of arterial stationary waves.
