一、 Inspection with tangential lighting
1 、 Thoracic deformity
2 、 Apical impulse
3 、 Abnormal pulsations of precardium
4
1 、 Thoracic deformity---protrusion of precordium
--Right ventricular hypertrophy (L3-5)
congenital heart disease( tetralogy of Fallot)
valvular heart disease( MS,PS)
--pericardial effusion (large , childhood)
--The second right intercostal space (2nd ICS-RS)
aneurysm of aortic arch
dilatation of ascending aorta
---flat chest
---pigeon chest/ funnel chest
5
2 Apical impulse---Normal --Position : in the left fifth intercostal space about
0.5-1.0cm medial from the midclavicular line --Range: no larger than 2.0-2.5cm in diameter
6
( 1 ) Location Posture Diaphragm Mediastinum Enlargement of the heart Dextrocardia( 右位心 ): 5-ICS—RS
---Abnormal
7
Posture: ---Recumbent( 仰 ) position—upper ---left lateral( 侧 ) position—to the left 2-3cm ---right lateral position—to the right 1.0-2.5cm
8
Diaphragm: ---“transverse position” upper,outward obesity ,child, pregnacy ascites; tumor of abdominal cavity ---“vertical position” inferior,inner thin, high, emphysema
9
mediastinum: • one side pleural effusion or pneumothorax ---to the healthy side • one side atelectasis or pleural adhesion ---to the affected side
10
Enlargement of the heart • right ventricular dilatation – displaced
to the left or slightly upper • left ventricular dilatation— displaced to
the left inferior • LV &RV dilatation –left inferior (both
side dilatation)

Physiological Chest wall pachynsis,
Narrow intercostal space
Thin chest wall,
Broaden intercostal space,
Exertion, emotion
pathological Myopathy (AMI, DCM),
Pericardial effusion,
Emphysema,
Constrictive pericarditis,
Left side massive pleural effusion or pneumothorax
LVhypertrophy,
Hyperthyroidism,
Fever,
anemia
(2) Intensity and extent changes
A feeble diffuse impulse ( more than 22.5cm in diameter) may suggest dilation. If the thrust is forcible, hypertrophy is suggested.
12
(3)Inward impulse( 负性心尖搏动 ): apex excavation in the systole
--adhesive pericarditis --prominent RV hypertrophy
13
(1)left third-forth intercostal space lateral to the sternum (3,4ICS-LS)
---RV hypertrophy(2)xiphoid process
---RV hypertrophy ---Abdominal aorta (aneurysm) (The pulsation of the abdominal aorta may often be felt in the epig
astric area. Also, the impulse from right ventricle can be felt by the fingertips placed under the xiphoid process while inspiration.)
3 、 Abnomal pulsations of percardium
14
(3)basal part of the heart ---2 ICS-LS: dilatation of the pulmonary arter
y or pulmonary hypertensin, occasionally healthy young man
---2 ICS-RS: aneurysm of aortic arch or dilatation of ascending aorta
3 、 Abnomal pulsations of percardium
15
二、 Palpation
1 Apical impulse and pulsation of precardium
2 Thrill
3 Pericardial friction rub
16
1 、 Apical impulse and pulsation of precardium
---Exact position of apex
---The beginning of systole of ventricle
first sound
---Heaving apex impulse: reliable of LV
hypertrophy
17
2 、 Thrill---Mechanism : the flow of blood→narrowed
orifice→vortices→vibration→chest wall
---One of characteristic signs of organic heart
disease : CHD or valvular stenosis, occasionally
insurficiency
---thrill - high frequency
murmurs - low frequency
---Key point: position, phase of cardiac cycle,
clinical significance
18
Clinical significance of thrill
Location phase Disease
2 ICS-RS Systole AS (RHD,CHD,senile)
2 ICS-LS Systole PS (CHD)
3,4 ICS-LS Systole VSD (CHD)
Apex Systole MI (severe)
Apex Diastole MS (RHD)
2 ICS-LS Continous PDA
19
3 、 Pericardil friction rub---Precardium -4th ICS-LS
---both phases of the cardiac cycle
---systolic period, sitting erect and leaning
forward, the end of expiration
---mechanism: rub of the visceral and
parietal layers of pleura
---seen: acute pericarditis
20
三、 Percussion ---Aim: to determine the size and shape of the heart ---Absolute dullness: contain no gas
Relative dullness : real size
21
1 、 maneuver of percussion ---patient in erect position
–the pleximeter is vertical with the intercostal space
---patient in the recumbent position
–the pleximeter is parallel with the intercostal space
22
2 、 order :---left—right ; upwards ; inward
---left margin : from 2-3 cm lateral to
the apex beat up to the 2nd ICS
---right margin : one intercostal space
higher than the border of liver dullness
up to the 2nd ICS
---size: vertical distance from margin to
the anterior midline
23
Percussion of cardiac dullness border starts tothe left on the chest, from 23cm apart from theapical impulse towards cardiac dullness (relativecardiac dullness). Percussion is performed fromleft towards cardiac dullness in the 4th, 3rd and2nd intercostal spaces. Next, to the right of thechest, percussion is done in the midclavicularline down to a dull point (the upper margin ofliver). Then, percuss from right towards cardiacdullness in the 4th (above the liver dullness), 3rd,and 2nd intercostal spaces.
24
一. Measure the vertical distances from each point of cardiac dullness to the mid-sternal line with a stiff ruler
二. When the left border of cardiac dullness falls outside the midclavicular line, it usually indicates that the left ventricle is enlarged
三. If the left border of cardiac dullness goes out of left midclavicular line (the left cardiac border towards left in the 5th intercostal space), it suggests that the right ventricle enlarged
四. The cardiac dullness enlarged towards two sides: (1)both left and right ventricles enlarged, (2) a large volume of fluid in the cavity of pericardium. In this case, the cardiac borders will be changed following the change of the patient's position
