nodes indicative of?



Don't know?




Terms in this set (190)

,tricuspid valve valve between the right atrium and the right
ventricle (AV valve)
has 3 cusps
prevents blood from flowing back into atria
during systole
4th ICS at lower left sternal border


mitral valve valve between the left atrium and the left
ventricle (AV valve)
has 2 cusps
prevents blood from flowing back into atria
during systole
5th ICS at MCL
Also PMI, location of apical pulse
best location to auscultate S1, S3, and S4


absence of PMI indicates extracardiac issue (pleural or pericardial
fluid)




systolic click caused by floppy mitral valve
high-pitched
have patient lie supine and upright


opening snap caused by abrupt recoil of stenotic mitral or
tricuspid valve
high-pitched with sharp snap or click
patient in any position

, pericardial friction rub intense, grating, machine-like that may occupy all
of systole and diastole


S1 the first heart sound, heard when the
atrioventricular (mitral and tricuspid) valves close
low-pitched
heard at apex


S2 the second heart sound, heard when the
semilunar (aortic and pulmonic) valves close
higher pitch and shorter duration than S1
heard at aortic and pulmonic areas


S3 caused by passive blood flow from atria
quiet, low-pitched and somewhat difficult to hear
have patient lie supine or left lateral recumbent
position


gallop S3 and S4 fuse together caused by fast heart
rates
low-pitched and intense
have patient supine or in left lateral recumbent
position


S4 caused by vibration of valves, papillae, and
ventricular walls
quiet, low-pitched and resembles rhythm of
"TEN-nessee"
have patient supine of left lateral recumbent
position
most commonly heard in older adults with HTN
loud S4 always suggests pathology
