Cardiac Auscultation Jay L. Rubenstone, D.O., F.A.C.C. October 2012
Techniques of Examination • Order of Exam • Aortic Area • Pulmonic Area • Tricuspid Area • Mitral Area
Process of Auscultation At each auscultatory area: 1. Concentrate on 1st Heart Sound • note Intensity and Splitting 2. Concentrate on 2nd Heart Sound • note Intensity and Splitting 3. Listen for Extra Sounds in Systole • note Timing, Intensity, Pitch
Process of Ascultation 4. Listen for Extra Sounds in Diastole • note timing, intensity, pitch 5. Listen for Systolic Murmurs* 6. Listen for Diastolic Murmurs* 7. Other Heart Sounds
Process of Ascultation *If Systolic or Diastolic Murmur Present, Note: • Location • Radiation • Intensity • Pitch • Quality
Auscultation Timing • Systolic • Early • Mid • Late • Diastolic • Early • Mid • Late (or Presystolic)
AuscultationLocation • Interspace • Centimeters from • Midsternal • Midclavicular • Or Axillary Lines
AuscultationIntensity • Grade 1 Very Faint • Grade 2 Quiet, but Heard Immediately • Grade 3 Moderately Loud, Not Associated with a Thrill • Grade 4 Loud, May Be Associated with a Thrill • Grade 5 Very Loud • Grade 6 May be Heard w/stethoscope off chest
Auscultation • Radiation or Transmission • Pitch • High, Med, Low • Quality • Blowing • Rumbling • Harsh • Muscial
Components of S1 • Mitral Valve Closure • Best Heard: Apex • Tricuspid Valve Closure • Best heard: Lower Left Sternal Boarder
S1 • Wide Splitting • RBBB • PVC from Left Ventricle • Single Sound • Normal • LBBB • PVC from Right Ventricle • Paced Beats
S1 • Increased Intensity • Short PR • Rapid HR • Atrial Fibrillation • Mitral Stenosis
S 1 • Decreased Intensity • Mitral Stenosis (Immobile Leaflets) • Opposite of Causes of Increased Intensity
S 2 • Two Components • Aortic Closure A2 • Pulmonic Closure P2 Best Heard at the Base
S 2 • Normal Splitting • Best Heard At 2nd Left Intercostal Space • During Inspiration there is Delayed Pulmonic Valve Closure • Due to Increased Capacitance of Pulmonary Bed
S 2 • Loss of Splitting • Inaudible P2- • Adults with Increased Chest Diameter • Congenital (Tetralogy, Pulmonary Atresia Transposition) • Increased Pulmonary Valve Resistance-Pulmonary HTN • Eisenmenger’s Complex-Equal Pulmonary & Systemic Resistances
S 2 • Persistent Splitting • RBBB • Pure MR • Healthy Adolescents when in Supine Position • Fixed Splitting • Atrial Septal Defect- Due to Delayed Closure of Pulmonic Valve from Increased Right-Sided Flow
S 2 • Paradoxical Splitting- P2 before A2 • LBBB • Paced Beats • Increased Intensity • A2 Systemic HTN Dilated Aortic Root • P2 Pulmonary HTN Dilated Pulmonary Trunk
Early Systolic Sounds • Ejection Sound- Usually High Frequency • Aortic Valve- Aortic Stenosis, Bicuspid Aortic Valve • Pulmonary Valve-Pulmonic Stenosis Vary with Respirations • Prosthetic Valves- Mechanical, Not Bioprosthetic
Mid-Late Systolic Sounds • Click • High Frequency Sound Found in Mitral Valve Prolapse • Occurs Earlier with Valsalva Maneuver or Squatting to Standing
Early Diastolic Sounds • Opening Snap of Mitral Stenosis (MS) • High Frequency-Left Lateral Decubitus Position, Apex • Occurs after S2, before S3 • MS More Severe with Short A2-OS Interval • Precordial Knock • Chronic Constrictive Pericarditis • Mitral Regurgitation • Atrial Myxoma • Older Model Prosthetic Mitral Valve
Mid Diastolic Sounds • S3 • Occurs During Rapid Filling of Left Ventricle (LV) related to LV Volume • Low Frequency Best Heard • At the Apex w/Bell • Pt in Left Lateral Decubitus Position • Can Be Normal to Age 40??? • Can be Pathognomonic for Congestive Heart Failure
Late Diastolic Sounds • S4 • During Atrial Phase of LV Filling • Consequence of Ventricular Stiffness • Absent in Atrial Fibrillation or Ventricular Pacing • Low Frequency Sound Best Heart • At the Apex • Pt in Left Lateral Decubitus Position • HTN, Aortic Stenosis, Ischemic Heart Disease
Diastolic Sounds • Right Sided S3, S4 • Left Lower Sternal Boarder • Intensity Varies with Respiration due to Right Heart Filling (Carvallo’s Sign) • Summation Gallop • Occurrence of an Over Lapping S3 and S4 due to Tachycardia
Systolic Murmurs • Acute Mitral Regurgitation (MR) or Tricuspid Regurgitation (TR) • Mid Frequency • Not Classic Murmur • Ventricular-Septal Defect (VSD) • High Frequency (diaphram) • Atrial-Septal Defect (ASD) • Pulmonary Outflow • Not Defect Murmur
Systolic Murmurs • Obstruction to Ventricular Outflow • Dilatation of Aortic Root or Pulmonary Trunk • Accelerated Flow into Aorta or Pulmonary Trunk • Innocent Murmurs • Some Forms of MR (Papillary Muscle Dysfunction)
Systolic Murmurs • Aortic Valve Stenosis • Diamond Shaped, Crescendo-Decrescendo • Begins After S1 or with Aortic Ejection Sound • Ends Before S2 • 2nd Right Intercostal Space, Apex, can radiate to Neck • High Frequency, Harsh • Can be Musical in Quality at the Apex
Systolic Murmurs • Pulmonic Stenosis • Similar to AS Except Relationship to P2 • 2nd Left Intercostal Space
Normal Systolic Murmurs • Still’s Murmur • Medium Frequency, Vibratory, Originating from Leaflets of Pulmonic Valve • Rapid Ejection into Aortic Root or Pulmonary Trunk • Pregnancy • Anemia • Fever • Thyrotoxicosis
Normal Systolic Murmurs • Aortic Sclerosis • Most Common Innocent Murmur
Systolic Murmurs • Mitral Valve Prolapse • High Frequency, Sometimes Honking, Crescendo Murmur • Usually Extends to S2 • Classic Mid-Late Systolic Click • Occurs Earlier with Valsalva & Squatting to Standing
Systolic Murmurs • Holosystolic • Begins with S1, Ends at S2 • MR- Radiates to Left Sternal Boarder, Base or Neck, More Commonly Apex to Axilla • TR- Carvallo’s Sign (Inspiratory Variation) • VSD-Across Precordium • Patent Ductus Arteriosis (PDA)- Aorto-Pulmonary Connection
Early Diastolic Murmur Aortic Regurgitation • High Pitched, Decrescendo Murmur • Best heard at • Left Sternal Boarder with the diaphram w/Patient Leaning Forward at End Expiration • Acute, Severe AR Murmur • Can be Short, Soft and Med Pitched • Chronic, Sever AR- • Murmur Usually Long, Loud, Blowing Decrescendo, High Frequency
Early Diastolic Murmur • Graham Steell – • Murmur of Pulmonic Regurgitation as a Result of Pulmonary HTN • High Freq, Decrescendo Blowing Murmur Heard throughout Diastole
Mid Diastolic Murmur • Mitral Stenosis (MS) • Follows Opening Snap • Low Pitch Rumble • Best Heard • Apex over LV • Using Bell of Stethoscope • Pt in Left Lateral Decubitus Position
Mid Diastolic Murmurs • Tricuspid Stenosis • Similar to MS, except increases with Respiration (Carvallo’s Sign) • Best Heard at Left Lower Sternal Edge
Mid Diastolic Murmurs • Pulmonic Regurgitation • Crescendo-Decrescendo Murmur when Primary Valvular Abnormality and Not Associated with Pumonary HTN
Diastolic Murmurs • Late or Presystolic • Follows Atrial Systole • Implies Sinus Rhythm • Can be present in MS or Complete Heart Block • Austin Flint Murmur of Aortic Regurgitation • Bubbling Quality, Short • Consequence of Aortic Regurgitation impinging on Mitral Valve
Diastolic Murmurs • Continuous • PDA (AortoPulmonary Connection) • Rough Thrill • A-V Fistulas • Hemodialysis Shunt • Aortic Valve Sinus to Right Ventricular Fistula • Coronary Artery Fistulas
Diastolic Murmurs • Venous Hum • Rough in quality not actually a hum • Hepatic • Internal Jugular • During Anemia, Fever, Pregnancy and Thyrotoxicosis
