    Wiggers diagram of various events of a cardiac cycle, with 2nd heart sound at bottom. A split S2 is a finding upon auscultation of the S2 heart sound. [1] It is caused when the closure of the aortic valve (A 2) and the closure of the pulmonary valve (P 2) are not synchronized during inspiration. The second heart sound (S2) is caused by the ...

    Phase V: The point at which all sounds finally disappear completely is the diastolic pressure. The second and third Korotkoff sounds have no known clinical significance. [8] In some patients, sounds may disappear altogether for a short time between Phase II and III, which is referred to as auscultatory gap.

  5. Phonocardiogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonocardiogram

    Heart sounds result from vibrations created by the closure of the heart valves. There are at least two; the first (S1) is produced when the atrioventricular valves (tricuspid and mitral) close at the beginning of systole and the second (S2) when the aortic valve and pulmonary valve (semilunar valves) close at the end of systole. [4]

  6. Gallop rhythm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallop_rhythm

    The normal heart rhythm contains two audible heart sounds called S 1 and S 2 that give the well-known "lub-dub" rhythm; they are caused by the closing of valves in the heart. The first heart sound (S1) is closure of the valve at the end of ventricular filling (the tricuspid and mitral valves); the second heart sound (S2), is closure of the ...

    The first heart sound S1, is the sound created by the closing of the atrioventricular valves during ventricular contraction and is normally described as "lub". The second heart sound, S2, is the sound of the semilunar valves closing during ventricular diastole and is described as "dub". [1]
