When you auscultate the heart, what do the first and second heart sounds define?
The duration of systole and diastole is defined by what when you auscultate the heart?
Closure of the mitral valve produces which heart sound?
The first heart sound, S1, is produced by closure of which valve?
Closure of the aortic valve produces which heart sound?
The second heart sound, S2, is produced by closure of which valve?
An S3 is commonly heard in which patients?
What heart sound is commonly heard in children and adolescents and in some young adults?
A gallop sound, S3, can be a sign of what type of pathology?
Left ventricular failure is associated with what heart sound?
In which patients is an S3 a potential sign of pathology?
An S3 can be a sign of what in patients over 30?
Which heart sound may persist as late as the age of 40, especially in women?
An s3 may persist to what age in women?
An S3 after age 40 is highly suggestive of what conditions?
After age 40, which sound strongly suggests either ventricular failure (CHF) or volume overload of the ventricle from valvular heart disease such as mitral regurgitation?
Which sound is seldom heard in young adults unless they are well conditioned athletes? It is frequently heard in infants and small children.
An S4 is frequently heard in which patients?
Which sound may be heard in apparently healthy older people, but it is also frequently associated with decreased ventricular compliance from heart disease. (Heard frequently in Acute MI).
An S4 in older patients over 50 is associated with what pathology, despite its frequent occurance?
In what position would you hear an S4?
Which heart sound is usually heard only at the apex with the patient placed in the left semilateral position?
What is an S4 gallop?
Wide transmission associated with a shock is pathologic and is referred to as what?
Most murmers occur without other evidence of cardiovascular abnormality, and are thus considered ____.
Why are most murmers considered "innocent"?
What condition is caused by turbulence and flow disturbance in vessels or through valves?
What causes murmers?
Middle-aged and older adults commonly have what heart sound?
Aortic Systolic Murmurs are common in what age group?
What causes a systolic murmer of mitral regurgitation?
Degenerative changes with calcification of the mitral annulus, or valve ring, impair the ability of the mitral valve to close normally during systole. This places an extra load on the heart because the mitral valve is leaking. What is this called?
When would a systolic murmer of mitral regurgitation typically occur?
What generally occurs about 10 years later than aortic sclerosis (Age 70)?
Where do murmers originate?
What originates in the large blood vessels or the heart?
What do diastolic murmers usually indicate? When do you hear them?
What sound usually indicates valvular heart disease? Hear between S2 and S1.
What do systolic murmurs usually indicate? When do you hear them?
What sound MAY indicate valvular disease, but often occurs when the heart is entirely normal? Hear between S1 and S2.
What do midsystolic murmurs usually indicate? When do you hear them?
What sound most often is related to blood flow across the aortic and pulmonic valves? Hear after S1 and stops before S2.
What do pansystolic (holosystolic) murmurs usually indicate? When do you hear them?
What sound often occurs with regurgitant (backward) flow across the atrioventricular valves? Hear starting with S1 and stopping at S2 without a gap between murmur and heart sounds.
What do late systolic murmurs usually indicate? When do you hear them?
What sound is associated with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP)? Heard in late or mid systole and persists up to S2.
What do early diastolic murmurs usually indicate? When do you hear them?
What sound is typically associated with regurgitant flow across incompetent semilunar (aortic/pulmonic) valves?
What do mid-diastolic murmurs usually indicate? When do you hear them?
What sound typically reflects turbulent flow across the aortic and pulmonic valves?

Hear a short time after S2 and then fades to absent before the next S1.
What do presystolic murmurs usually indicate? When do you hear them?
What sound is usually heard late in diastole and continues up to S1 without fading?

Reflects turbulent flow across the A-V valve (???)

Which Grade?

Loud with palpable thrill

Which Grade?

Very loud with thrill

Typically can hear just standing by the patient
What are the 4 most likely causes of murmers in children?
Patent Ductus Arteriosus
Atrial Septal Defect
Ventricular Septal Defect
Coarctation of the Aorta

These are the 4 most likely causes of what?
What are the three innocent murmers in children?
Still’s Murmur
Venous Hum
Pulmonary Flow Murmur

These are the three what?
What are the most common abnormal breath sounds?
Rales, rhonchi, and wheezes are the most common what?
What are rales (crackles or crepitations)?
What are small clicking, bubbling, or rattling sounds in the lung known as?
What are believed to occur when air opens closed alveoli (air spaces)?
How/when do rales occur?
What are ronchi?
What are sounds that resemble snoring known as?
What are produced when air movement through the large airways is obstructed or turbulent?
How/when do ronchi occur?
