31
Q

Aortic stenosis

A

mid systolic, medium pitch, crescendo-decrescendo pattern, Harsh and Raspy, 2nd ICS at right sternal border, often radiates to the neck (key distinguishing factor), sitting and leaning forward, squatting increases the intensity

32
Q

mitral regurgitation

Pan-systolic (holosystolic), medium to high pitch, harsh, blowing, may be associated with an S3, Apical, radiates to left axillary region

33
Q

Pulmonic stenosis

A

Midsystolic, medium pitch, crescendo-decrescendo, Harsh, 2-3 ICS, LSB, Radiates to left shoulder, neck region, Pathologic S2 splitting

34
Q

Tricuspid regurgitation

A

Holosystolic, medium pitch, blowing, left lower sternal border, radiates to right sternum, diploid process and possibly left MCL, increases with inspiration

35
Q

Aortic regurgitation

A

Decrescendo diastolic, grade I-III, high pitch, blowing, 2nd-4th ICS, LSB, Holding breath after exhalation, holding hand-letting go

36
Q

Mitral Stenosis

A

Mid-late diastolic, Grade I-VI, low pitch, diastolic rumble, Decrescendo (opening snap follows S2)

37
Q

Pulmonic regurgitation

A

Early diastolic, Grade I-VI, High pitch, Decrescendo, Blowing, LSB

38
Q

Tricuspid stenosis

A

mid-late diastolic, Grade I-VI, Low pitch diastolic rumble, Decrescendo (opening snap follows S2), rumbling

39

A

Brown discoloration (hemosiderin deposits), medial malleoli ulcers d/t bacterial invasion of poorly drained tissue,

40
Q

Arterial insufficiency

A

Arterial ulcers usually occur on the tip of the toes, metatarsal heads and lateral malleoli, hair loss
