| A | B |
| Location of aortic valve sound | 2nd ICS, RSB |
| Location of pulmonic valve sound | 2nd ICS, LSB |
| Location of tricuspid valve sound | 4th ICS, LSB |
| Location of mitral valve sound/PMI/AP | 5th ICS, MCL |
| Erb's point | 3rd ICS, LSB |
| Normal location of palpable pulsation | PMI |
| diaphragm of stethoscope trasmits | high frequency sounds |
| Bell of the stethoscope transmits | low-frequency sounds |
| S1 is produced from | closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves |
| S2 is produced from | closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves |
| S1 is best heard at | the apex/ mitral and tricuspid landmarks |
| S2 is best heard at | the base/ aortic and pulmonic landmarks |
| Lub, dub, dub | three men in a tub |
| S3, ventricular gallop is heard in | pregnancy, CHF, restrictive myocardial disease |
| S4, atrial gallop is head in | CAD, cardiomyopathy, aortic stenosis |
| systolic murmurs are caused by | aortic or pulmonic stenosis or mitral or tricuspid regurgitation |
| diastolic murmurs are caused by | aortic or pulmonic regurgitation or mitral or tricuspid stenosis |
| this type of murmur is the most serious indicating pathology | diastolic |
| A leathery, grating, high pitched sounds that is continuous when holding breath is | a pericardial friction rub |
| prosthetic heart valves create this sound | clicking or ticking |
| Increased JVD is a sign of | increased CVP |
| Corotid bruits place the patient at risk for this | stroke |
| Capilarry refill > 3 sec indicates this | decreased tissue oxygenation |
| Homans sign is used for diagnosis of | DVT |
| Internittant claudication indicates | arteriosclerosis/arterial insufficiency |
| Allen's test | used for radial/ulnar artery assessment |
| Normal pulse | 2+ intensity |
