Pitcher Flashcards
thrill
vibration - valve problem
LLSB
tricuspid
apex
mitral
2nd ICS right and left
aortic and pulmonic
left lateral decubitus
accentuates mitral murmurs
murmur
turbulence across valve
bruit
turbulence outside heart - periphery
grade 4/6
thrill palpable
grade 6/6
stethoscope OFF chest
grade 5/6
stethoscope partially off chest
aortic stenosis
radiate to carotid arteries
-bruit
carotid stenosis vs. aortic stenosis - listen to heart - if abnormal - aortic stenosis
atherosclerosis
bruit - if 70%
stills murmur
innocent
- mid systolic, louder supine
- in kids
S1
mitral and tricuspid
timed with carotid pulse
S2
aortic and pulmonic
split S1
normal variant or abnormal from RBBB or PVC
if both split
split S2
with inspiration - normal
wide or fixed - delayed pulmonic closure from stenosis, RBBB
S3
early diastolic
-kentucky
transition of rapid to slow ventricular filling
LV myocardial damage causing systolic dysfunction from dilated cardiomyopathy**
sudden limitation of normal ventricular relaxation during filling stage in diastole
S3
with MI
-to CHF
S4
vibration of LV from atrial kick
- hits less compliant ventricular wall
- thicker heart**
- poorly treated HTN
aortic/pulmonic stenosis, HTN, MI wall damage, thick ventricle wall from higher work load, and some stiffening
decreased ventricular distensibility
transmits to carotids
aortic stenosis
-dyspnea on exertion, angina, syncope
aortic stenosis
systolic crescendo/decrescendo pattern
often associated S4
gallop rhythm
all 4 sounds
ejection click
sound occurring moment of max pressure with sudden tensing of a valve root
aortic ejection click
early systolic
- onset of left V ejection
- aortic root suddenly stretched
dilated aneurysm, coarc, HTN
aortic regurg
austin-flint
early diastolic - high pitch blowing decrescendo
dilates LV - S3
high puls pressure
rheumatic disease, congenital bicuspid valve, endocarditis
pulmonic ejection click
early systole
pulmonary HTN, aneurysm dilation
sudden root tensioning
pulmonic stenosis
systolic crescendo-decrescendo 2nd ICS left
exertional dyspnea, chest pain, syncope
can hear S4
usually congenital
graham steel
pulmonic regurg
softer diastolic decrescendo
from pulmonary HTN
tricuspid regurg
holosystolic at left sternal border
high pitch, blowing
no radiation
inspiration accentuates murmur
mitral valve opening snap
diastole
-snap to LV right before atrial blood flows in
stenotic mitral leaflets
mitral valve stenosis
diastolic murmur - opening snap
pulmonary HTN, elevated JVP, RV hypertrophy
