Any maneuver that increases left ventricular volume — such as squatting, elevation of legs, hand grip, and phenylephrine — can delay the onset of clicks, shorten murmur duration, and increase murmur intensity. Late systolic Tricuspid valve prolapse Uncommon without concomitant mitral valve prolapse. Best heard over left lower sternal border.
It is best heard at the left upper sternal border. This is the result of an increased volume going through the pulmonary valve. It has association with a fixed, split S2 and a right ventricular heave. Ventricular septal defect (VSD) will present as a holosystolic murmur. One can hear it at the left lower sternal border.
Still's murmur is detected via auscultation with a stethoscope.It has a peculiar "musical", "resonant" or "vibratory" quality that is quite unique. [1] [2] It is generally most easily heard at the left middle or lower sternal border and the right upper sternal border, often with radiation to the carotid arteries, although other locations are common.
The murmur usually does not extend to S1. Early diastolic Left anterior descending artery stenosis This murmur, also known as Dock's murmur, is similar to that of aortic regurgitation and is heard at the left second or third intercostal space. A Coronary artery bypass surgery can eliminate the murmur. Early diastolic Cabot–Locke murmur
The following characters of this murmur are emphasized. It may occur throughout systole and diastole (some reports with only noted during systolic phase). [5] Its quality (primarily systolic, high-pitched, around left sternal border [4]) may closely simulate Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA). The distinguishing properties are its variation in ...

A pansystolic heart murmur may be heard on auscultation of the chest. The murmur is usually of low frequency and best heard on the lower left sternal border. It increases with inspiration, and decreases with expiration: this is known as Carvallo's sign. However, the murmur may be inaudible due to the relatively low pressures in the right side ...
