It appears that the cause of the early diastolic murmur along the left sternal border in patients with mitral stenosis is due, in most cases, to adynamic aortic regurgitation rather than secondary ...
Diastolic murmurs include aortic and pulmonic regurgitation (early diastolic), and mitral or tricuspid stenosis (mid-late diastolic). Tricuspid stenosis is very rare and is discussed further in ...
This can cause abnormal blood flow as well as a heart murmur. Several valves in the heart aid with blood movement and direction. These include the aortic, pulmonary, mitral, and tricuspid valves.
Auscultation of the heart in patients with aortic stenosis can be very helpful in both the diagnosis and determining the severity of disease. The typical murmur of aortic stenosis is a high ...
Aortic stenosis is a disease often diagnosed in its asymptomatic phase due to its distinct murmur and the widespread use of noninvasive imaging. The history, however, is still of paramount ...
