An hydraulic orifice formula offering the possibility of quantifying cardiac output in conditlons of mitrai stenosis is tested uslng potentially noninvaslve portlons of catheterization data from patients evaluated for obstructive mitrai valve disease. The equation studied is V = (1/21) R A T2, where
