Heart murmurs
Audible prolonged sounds generated by turbulent blood flow
Reynolds number
Re = Vdp/
V mean velocity; d diameter; p fluid density; - fluid viscosity Re > 2,000 (for homogeneous fluids)
Changes in velocity of flow or diameter of a vessel or valve are the usual causes of murmurs and bruits
Flow
Pressure
Mechanisms of Murmurs
#1 Flow across partial obstruction
#2 Increased flow across normal structures #3 Ejection into a dilated vessel #4 Regurgitant flow across incompetent valve #5 Abnormal communication between high and low pressure chambers or vessels
Description of Murmurs
Timing systolic, diastolic, continuous Intensity Grade I-VI systolic Grade I-IV diastolic Pitch or frequency high if large pressure difference between chambers or vessels, low if small pressure difference Shape or configuration crecendodecrescendo or decrescendo
Description of Murmurs
Location maximum intensity closest to source use anatomic landmarks Quality harsh, blowing, musical Radiation in direction of turbulent blood flow Response to maneuvers position change, respiration
Systolic Murmurs
S1
S2
Pansystolic Murmur
Mechanisms #4 & #5 Begin with S1 and continue to S2. There is a large pressure difference between chamber of origination and the chamber into which the abnormal flow occurs throughout systole.
Between LV and LA in mitral regurgitation(MR) Between RV and RA for tricuspid regurgitation(TR) Between LV and RV for ventricular septal defect(VSD)
Pansystolic murmur
Large pressure difference between chambers throughout systole
S1
S1
S2
Diastolic Murmurs
S1
S2
OS
S2
S1
Middiastolic Murmur
If severe mitral, tricuspid regurgitation, early diastolic flow into the ventricle is markedly increased
S2
S1
Continuous Murmur
#5 Any communication between high pressure and lower pressure where the pressure difference persists from systole into diastole. Blood flow always in one direction Patent Ductus Arteriosus between aorta and pulmonary artery Continuous does not necessarily mean that murmur never stops; only that it starts in systole and spills over S2 well into diastole, usually peaking around S2. Usually multifrequency so can be heard with diaphragm or bell. PDA murmur can be quite loud and has been called a machinery murmur. Heard best at the upper left sternal border
Continuous Murmur
Any communication between systemic and pulmonary circulations- large pressure difference throughout cardiac cycle turbulent flow always in one direction as in patent ductus arteriosus
S1
S2
Continuous Murmur
If downstream pressure is elevated, the later diastolic component may not be audible as in pulmonary hypertension with a PDA

Maneuvers
Respiratory variation right sided murmurs increase with inspiration Postural change standing and squatting change ventricular volume Leg raising increases right heart murmurs immediately Isometric handgrip raises arterial pressure Variation in R-R interval- ejection murmurs accentuate after long R-R interval, regurgitant murmurs do not
Summary
Describe all characteristics of a murmur Judge the significance of a murmur by the rest of the history and physical findings Systolic murmurs can be benign or pathologic; diastolic pathologic The H & P makes most cardiac diagnoses
