- running and then squat
Aortic Stenosis

Pulmonic Stenosis
systolic, loudest at LUSB
- ejection click that decreases with inspiration and increases with expiration

Coarctation of Aorta
- systolic ejection murmur with radiation to the left interscapular area
- BP and pulses in LE is less than UE
Stills Murmur
musical
