What are the methods of detection of heart sounds?
.
What does the phonocardiograph consist of?
.
What does the stethoscope consist of?
.
What is used for low-pitched sounds and high-pitched sounds?
.
What are the auscultatory areas of the heart and what are their sites?
.
What is the duration of S1,S2,S3 and S4 respectively?
- 0.15
- 0.1
- 0.05
- 0.02
What is the relation to the cardiac cycle of S1,S2,S3 and S4 respectively?
- Isometric contraction and maximum ejection
- isometric relaxation
- terminal part of rapid filling
- mid-point of atrial systoleβ-> presystolic heart sound
What is the cause of S1,S2,S3 and S4 respectively?
- Sudden closure of AV valves + ventricular and vascular component
- sudden closure of semi-lunar valves
- Vibration of the relaxed ventricular wall and the cusps of AV valves
- Vibration of the AV valves cusps due to the rush of blood from atria to ventricles
What are the characters of S1,S2,S3 and S4 respectively?
- Soft and low pitched(25-40Hz), heard as the word lub by the stethoscope
- Sharp and high-pitched(50Hz), here is the word Dub by states of stethoscope
- Low pitched sound that can only be heard in children
- Faint low pitched sound that is not Melanie inaudible
What are the auscultatory sites of S1,S2,S3 and S4 respectively?
- Mitral and tricuspid area
- Aortic area and pulmonary area
- Best heard at the mitral area while the person is in recumbent position and leaning to the left side
- at the mitral area (abnormal)
What are the abnormalities of heart sounds?
.
What is the definition of splitting heart sound?
.
What is the cause of splitting heart sound?
.
What is the cause of splitting of the first heart sound in?
.
What is the cause of splitting of the second heart sound? And when is it observed?
.
What is the definition of triple or gallop rhythm?
.
When does gallop rhythm occur?
.
What is the definition of murmurs?
.
What is the mechanism of murmurs?
.
What are the types of blood flow in vessels?
.
What is the time of systolic murmur, diastolic murmur and continuous murmur respectively?
.
What is the cause of systolic murmur?
.
What is the cause of diastolic murmur?
.
What is the cost of continuous murmur? (Machinery murmur)
.
What is arterial pulse?
.
What is the strength of pulse determined by?
.
What is pulse pressure affected by?
.
