2. Systolic heart murmur - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systolic_heart_murmur

   Since the L ventricle has a higher pressure than the R ventricle, flow during systole occurs from the L to R ventricle, producing the holosystolic murmur. It can be best heard over the left third and fourth intercostal spaces and along the sternal border. It is associated with normal pulmonary artery pressure and thus S2 is normal.

3. Heart murmur - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_murmur

   Harsh holosystolic (pansystolic) murmur at the left lower sternal border Classic for a ventricular septal defect (VSD). This may lead to the development of the delayed-onset cyanotic heart disease known as Eisenmenger syndrome. Eisenmenger syndrome is a reversal of the left-to-right heart shunt. This is the result of hypertrophy of the right ...

4. Heart sounds - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_sounds

   These are the first heart sound (S 1) and second heart sound (S 2), produced by the closing of the atrioventricular valves and semilunar valves, respectively. In addition to these normal sounds, a variety of other sounds may be present including heart murmurs , adventitious sounds , and gallop rhythms S 3 and S 4 .

5. Ventricular septal defect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_septal_defect

   Pansystolic (Holosystolic) murmur along lower left sternal border (depending upon the size of the defect) +/- palpable thrill (palpable turbulence of blood flow). Heart sounds are normal. Larger VSDs may cause a parasternal heave, a displaced apex beat (the palpable heartbeat moves laterally over time, as the heart enlarges).

6. Ebstein's anomaly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebstein's_anomaly

   S3 heart sound; S4 heart sound; Triple or quadruple gallop due to widely split S1 and S2 sounds plus a loud S3 and/or S4; Systolic murmur of tricuspid regurgitation = Holosystolic or early systolic murmur along the lower left sternal border depending on the severity of the regurgitation; Right atrial hypertrophy; Right ventricular conduction ...

7. Souffle (heart sound) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Souffle_(heart_sound)

   A mammary souffle is a maternal cardiac murmur heard over the breasts. [citation needed] A mammary souffle is present in late pregnancy or during lactation. [4] It is a benign continuous heart sound, which disappear after lactation. It's supposed to arise from superficial arteries supplying the lactating breast and for that reason called a ...

8. Mitral regurgitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_regurgitation

   The loudness of the murmur does not correlate well with the severity of regurgitation. It may be followed by a loud, palpable P 2, [6] heard best when lying on the left side. [7] A third heart sound is commonly heard. [6] Patients with mitral valve prolapse may have a holosystolic murmur or often a mid-to-late systolic click and a late systolic ...

9. Valvular heart disease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valvular_heart_disease

   Auscultatory findings include inspiratory third heart sound at left lower sternal border (LLSB) [16] and a blowing holosystolic murmur at LLSB, intensifying with inspiration, and decreasing with expiration and Valsalva maneuver. [16] Patients may have a parasternal heave along LLSB. [16]
