Cardiac Kate Flashcards
S1 sound is described as?
“lub”
S1 sound is from?
closure of the mitral & tricuspid valves
S2 sound results from?
closure of the aortic & pulmonic valves
S2 sound is described as
“dub”
S3 heart sound results from?
early passive rapid filling of the ventricles, rapid distension of the ventricular walls
S4 heart sound results from?
2nd phase of ventricular filling as atria contract and blood flows into ventricles
Rush of blood vibrates valves, papillary mm., and ventricular walls
sound made by blood rushing through a narrowed or leaking valves or wall b/w chambers of the heart during systole
systolic murmur
sound made by blood rushing through a narrowed or leaking valve or wall b/w chambers of the heart during diastole
diastolic murmur
a palpable murmur
vigorous, turbulent blood flow through any narrowed opening
thrill
cardiac impulse that is vigorous & can be felt through the chest wall
lift/heave
aortic auscultation space
2nd ICS, RSB
pulmonic auscultation space
2nd ICS, LSB
2nd pulmonic auscultation area
3rd ICS, LSB
Tricuspid auscultation area
4th & 5th ICS, LSB
Mitral (apex) auscultation area
5th ICS, mid-clavicular line (left)
abn finding on JVD measurement? and what this means
JVP > 4 cm above the sternal angle (9 cm above the right atrium) indicates increased right heart pressure
JVD measurement tests for?
increased right heart pressure
hepatojugular reflex tests for?
fluid overload
abn heptaojugular reflex finding?
increased JVP in the neck upon application of pressure to the RUQ near the region of the liver
cardiac percussion looks for what?
an estimate of heart siz
