OBS

Dans les cas où la courbe n'est pas inversée, elle réalise l'aspect typique de "dip-plateau" avec la dépression protodiastolique profonde et acuminée D ou O, suivie d'un plateau méso et télédiastolique qui débute habituellement par un ressaut. L'ensemble de la diatole réalise alors le symbole de la racine carrée. (Source : Annales de Cardiologie et Angéiologie, 1975, vol. 24, n° 5, p. 422).
