Heart Sounds Flashcards
S1 is heard for how much time?
0.14 seconds
Name 3 types of abnormal s1
Soft
Loud
Splitting s1
State 4 reasons for soft S1?
Increased distance between chest and heart.
Decrease in pressure rise intensity
Valvular problems
PR intervals prolonged
4 pathology causing increased distance between chest and heart which leads to abnormal S1.
Obesity
Emphysema
Pericardial effusion
Pleural effusion
Name 4 pathology that cause decrease in rate of rise in pressure in ventricles.
Acute myocardial infarction
Myxedema
Cardiomyopathy
Mitral regurgitation
Valvular pathology that can cause soft S1
Mitral stenosis and tricuspid stenosis
State 3 reasons that can cause loud S1
Tachycardia
Increased AV flow(ASD, PDA)
Prolonged AV flow(mitral and tricuspid stenosis)
Short PR interval
Splitting of S1 occurs in what conditions.
Normal splitting where M1 occurs first- RBBB, LV ectopic beats, LV pacing, Ebstein anomaly.
Reverse split in LBBB, RV ectopic beats, RV pacing, severe mitral stenosis and atrial myxoma.
State 4 types of abnormal S2.
Wide splitting time
Reverse splitting
Wide fixed S2
Single S2.
Pathology that can cause wide S2?
VSD, Mitral regurgitation (early A2)
RBBB, LV Pacing, LV ectopic beats(Late P2 due to conduction problem).
Pulmonary stenosis, pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary artery embolism (late P2 because of longer RV systole)
Miscellaneous cause- ASD as it causes pulmonary hypertension.
Reverse splitting of S2 pathology
Wolf Parkinson white syndrome/WPW syndrome (early P2)
LBBB, RV pacing, RV ectopic beats(conduction problem)
Systemic hypertension, aortic stenosis (Increased LV systole)
PDA(increase hangout time)
Pathology which cause wide fixed split S2?
ASD
Pulmonary hypertension
Acute right heart failure
Pathology that cause single S2?
LBBB, RV pacing, RV ectopic beats,Systemic hypertension, aortic stenosis ,PDA(delayed A2)
Tetralogy of Fallot, severe pulmonary stenosis, severe aortic stenosis (one component is absent)
Emphysema, obesity (Increased chest to heart area).
Abnormalities that can cause abnormal S3
Ventricular dysfunction (SID CV) Restrictive cardiomyopathy Constructive pericarditis Hyperkinetic states Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy
Best location to hear S3?
Apex of heart
