Systolic
Right-sided murmurs are louder on…?
Inspiration
What is a thrill?
A palpable murmur
What is a heave?
Buzz due to VH
What valve disease causes malaria flush?
Mitral stenosis
Pan-systolic that radiates to axilla
Mitral regurgitation
Tapping apex
Mitral stenosis
Water-hammer pulse
Aortic regurgitation
Ejection systolic radiates to carotids
Aortic stenosis
Caused by papilla rupture
Mitral regurgitation
Opening snap

High pitched murmur, blowing in nature
All regurgitations
Associated with AF

Associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
