Q

S2 heart sound __ normally precedes __

how to physiologically accentuate the split

A

A2 normally precedes P2

Split is physiologically accentuated by inspiration due to delayed closure of P2 from increased filling

28
Q

S2 slit - if heard on expiration where A2 is heard after P2 could be caused by

A

LBB, aortic stenosis, systemic HTN, left ventricular heart dysfunction

29
Q

S2 heart sound - P2 is increased in

A

pulmonary HTN and the splitting of S2 may narrow or disappear

30
Q

S3 heart sound reflects

A

early ventricular filling that occurs after the AV valves open
faint, low frequency

31
Q

S3 heart sound - rumbling sound produced by the (where in EKG)

A

ventricle after S2 during mid T to P phase of EKG

32
Q

S3 sound due to

A

diastolic distension of the ventricle and vibration arising from the wall motion

33
Q

S3 heard best with

A

expiration in left sidelying at apex

34
Q

S3 may disappear when and why

A

sitting up or standing - because of gravity there is not as much preload on the heart

35
Q

S3 sound can be normal in who

A

children and young adults but abnormal in those over 40

36
Q

S3 sound listening

A

after S2 so you have lub, dub and then “ta”

37
Q

S4 heart sound - signifies what

A

rapid ventricular filling that occurs after atrial contraction

38
Q

S4 heard before __ during __

A

S1 during expiration

39
Q

S4 heard best where

A

at apex

40
Q

S4 possibly due to

A

non-compliant ventricular wall, associated with atrial kick and is absent in atrial fibrillation

41
Q

S4 heart sound is associated with

A

ischemic heart disease, cardiomyopathies, severe systemic HTN and mitral regurgitation

42
Q

S4 heart sound correlates with what in EKG

A

PG segment

43
Q

When can S4 be “normal”

A

trained individual with left ventricular hypertrophy

44
Q

S4 listening

A

before S1 - at beginning of the lub

45
Q

split S1 versus S4

A

S1 is much quicker and split should be louder

Look at inspiration and expiration too

46
Q

Systolic murmurs occur between what

A

S1 and S2

47
Q

Diastolic murmurs occur between what

A

S2 and S1

48
Q

Loudness of murmur is a factor of what

A

the velocity of blood flow and turbulence it creates

Grades 1-VI

49
Q

Grades of murmurs

A

From faint and requires effort to hear all the way to can be heard without stethoscope

50
Q

Heart murmurs referred sounds progress

A

down stream

51
Q

Aortic stenosis radiates to

A

the carotid arteries o the neck

stenosis (forward)

52
Q

Mitral regurgitation radiates to

A

the axilla and back most often

regurgitation (backwards)

53
Q

Description of murmur

A
frequency of pitch
intensity of grade
duration of timing
pattern
location
radiation
quality
presence of extra heart sounds and palpable findings
54
Q

Systolic murmurs include

A

aortic stenosis
pulmonary stenosis
mitral and tricuspid regurgitation
mitral valve prolapse

55
Q

Diastolic murmurs include

A

aortic regurgitation
pulmonic regurgitation
Mitral and tricuspid stenosis

56
Q

Systolic more associated with

A

S1

57
Q

Diastolic more associated with

A

S2

58
Q

Pulmonic valvular stenosis - from what

A

congenital pulmonic stenosis

59
Q

Pulmonic valvular stenosis - what is normal, when does murmur begin

A

S1 is normal

Murmur begins after S1

60
Q

Pulmonic valvular stenosis - increases in intensity during

A

expiration and stops before S2

61
Q

Innocent murmur - most are what tract murmurs

A

pulmonic outflow tract murmurs and are not pathologic
Dont radiate
Change with activity

62
Q

Innocent murmur - associated with

A

split S2

63
Q
