Zusammenfassung:In a study of 29 patients to observe untoward reactions to applications of ultrasound over the carotid sinus and stellate ganglion areas, it was noted that cough was evoked in five patients, premature ventricular systoles in three and a burning sensation of the skin at the point of treatment in five. No considerable effect on heart rate or blood pressure was observed.
