Heart murmurs Flashcards
P 273. Complete.
Holosystolic, high-pitched “blowing murmur”
Loudest at apex; radiates–>axilla.
Enhanced by maneuvers that increase TPR
Mitral regurg
Holosystolic, high-pitched “blowing murmur”
Loudest at LSB at 5th IC space; radiates–>RSB
Enhanced by maneuvers that increase RA return
Tricuspid regurg
Causes of MR (5)
IHD, MVP, LV dilation, ARF, IE
Causes of TR (3)
RV dilation, ARF, IE
Crescendo-decrescendo systolic ejection murmur
Loudest at heart base; radiates–> carotids
Pulses are weak w/ delayed pulse
Aortic stenosis
Holosystolic, harsh-sounding murmur
Loudest @ LSB at 5th IC space
Accentuated w/ hand grip
VSD
Late systolic crescendo murmur w/ midsystolic click. Heard best over apex; loudest just before S2. Occurs earlier w/ maneuvers that decrease venous return; later with those that increase SVR or venous return.
MVP
High-pitched “blowing” early diastolic decrescendo murmur.
Wide pulse P
Increased intensity w/ hand grip; decreased w/ vasodilators.
Aortic regurg
Delayed rumbling late diastolic murmur following the opening snap.
Enhanced w/ maneuvers that increase LA return
Smaller interval btwn S2 and OS= greater severity
Mitral stenosis
Continuous machine-like murmur
Loudest at S2; best heard at left infraclavicular area.
PDA
Cause of split S2 with inspiration
physiologic
Cause of widened splitting with expiration and inspiration
R bundle branch block
pulmonary stenosis
Cause of fixed splitting with inspiration and expiration
atrial septal defect
Cause of paradoxical splitting
L bundle branch block
advanced aortic stenosis
Cause of diastolic opening snap
mitral stenosis
Where does the mitral regurg murmur radiate?
Axilla
What maneuvers enhance the MR murmur?
Those that increase TPR (squatting, hand grip)
