Heart Sounds Flashcards
Crescendo decrescendo systolic ejection murmu
Radiates to carotids
Aortic stenosis
Typically due to age related calcification or early onset calcification of a bicuspid aortic valve.
holosystolic high pitched blowing murmur loudest at the apex and radiating toward the axilla
Mitral regurgitation.
Holosystolic high pitched blowing murmur loudest at the tricuspid area radiating to the right sternal border
Tricuspid regurgitation
Late systolic crescendo murmur with midsystolic click
Mitral valve prolapse
Most frequent valvular lesion
Holosystolic, harsh sounding murmur loudest at the tricuspid area
ventricular septal defect.
High pitched blowing early diastolic decrescendo murmur
aortic regurgitation
Follows opening snap. Delayed rumbling late diastolic murmur
Mitral stenosis
Continuous machine like murmur loudest at S2 commonly due to rubella or prematurity.
Heard best at the left infraclavicular area.
Patent ductus arteriosus
