    Auscultogram from normal and abnormal heart sounds. Diastolic heart murmurs are heart murmurs heard during diastole, [1] [2] [3] i.e. they start at or after S2 and end before or at S1. Many involve stenosis of the atrioventricular valves or regurgitation of the semilunar valves.

    Heart murmurs are unique heart sounds produced when blood flows across a heart valve or blood vessel. [1] This occurs when turbulent blood flow creates a sound loud enough to hear with a stethoscope. [2] The sound differs from normal heart sounds by their characteristics. For example, heart murmurs may have a distinct pitch, duration and timing.

[18] Each "lub-dub" sound is one beat. [19] [20] It should be taken for one full minute, and it should be determined if the rhythm is regular or irregular.

    Auscultogram from normal and abnormal heart sounds. Heart murmurs are most frequently organized by timing, into systolic heart murmurs and diastolic heart murmurs. However, continuous murmurs can not be directly placed into either category. [1] These murmurs are due to blood flow from a high pressure chamber or vessel to a lower pressure system.
