Heat Sounds = Valves Snapping Shut◦ S1(with pulse) = Mitral + Tricuspid Closing◦ S2 (between pulses) = Aortic + Pulmonary Closing
Are the heart sounds normal?◦ Additional Sounds?◦ Split Sounds?
Is there silence between the sounds?◦ If not = Murmur

Where is it loudest? Does it radiate?
◦ Aortic to Neck◦ Mitral to Axilla
Is it:◦ With the Pulse? = Systolic◦ Between Pulses? = Diastolic◦ Louder on:
Expiration? = Left Inspiration? = Right Sitting Forward = A/P Rolled Left = Mitral

Murmur = Turbulent Blood Flow through a Faulty Valve◦ Stenosis = Stiff/Slow to Open ≈ Creaky Door◦ Regurgitation = Failure to Close
Where is it Loudest/Radiate to? = Valve Involved Is it With Pulse? = Systolic
Between Pulses? = Diastolic Should that valve be Open/Closed in
Systole/Diastole?◦ Aortic + Pulmonary – Open Systole/Closed Diastole◦ Mitral + Tricuspid – Closed Systole/Open Diastole
