  2. Aortic stenosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aortic_stenosis

    Aortic stenosis (AS or AoS) is the narrowing of the exit of the left ventricle of the heart (where the aorta begins), such that problems result. [1] It may occur at the aortic valve as well as above and below this level. [1] It typically gets worse over time. [1] Symptoms often come on gradually with a decreased ability to exercise often ...

    ** Supravalvular aortic stenosis is loudest at a point slightly higher than in that of valvular AS and may radiate more to the right carotid artery. **Subvalvular aortic stenosis is usually due to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), with murmur loudest over the left sternal border or the apex. The murmur in HCM increases in intensity with a ...

    Aortic valve stenosis is a crescendo/decrescendo systolic murmur. It is best heard at the right upper sternal border (aortic area). It sometimes radiates to the carotid arteries. In mild aortic stenosis, the crescendo-decrescendo is early peaking. Whereas in severe aortic stenosis, the crescendo is late-peaking.

    aortic stenosis The Gallavardin phenomenon is a clinical sign found in patients with aortic stenosis . It is described as the dissociation between the noisy and musical components of the systolic murmur heard in aortic stenosis.

  6. Handgrip maneuver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handgrip_maneuver

    The effect of reducing the intensity in forward flowing murmurs is much more evident in aortic stenosis rather than mitral stenosis. The reason for this is that there is a larger pressure gradient across the aortic valve. [6] A complementary maneuver for differentiating disorders is the Valsalva maneuver, which decreases preload. [7]

  7. Supravalvular aortic stenosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supravalvular_aortic_stenosis

    The murmur associated with it is systolic murmur and is similar in character to valvular aortic stenosis murmur but commonly present at 1st Intercostal space (ICS) on the right. Individuals with this anomaly may have unequal carotid pulses, differential blood pressure in upper extremities and a palpable thrill in Suprasternal notch.
