Describe how the murmur of mitral regurg is different from the murmur of aortic regurg.
Mitral regurg: Holosystolic, loudest at apex, heard best at left lateral decubitus, enhanced by squatting and expiration. Aortic regurg: Diastolic, heard best along the left sternal border, associated w/ widening of pulse pressure.
