    Study Notes

    Aortic Area Murmurs

    • Systolic Murmur: Aortic stenosis, flow murmur (e.g., physiologic), aortic valve sclerosis

    Tricuspid Area Murmurs

    • Holosystolic Murmur: Tricuspid regurgitation, ventricular septal defect
    • Diastolic Murmur: Tricuspid stenosis

    Pulmonic Area Murmurs

    • Systolic ejection murmur: Pulmonic stenosis, atrial septal defect, flow murmur

    Mitral Area Murmurs

    • Systolic Murmur: Mitral regurgitation, mitral valve prolapse
    • Diastolic Murmur: Mitral stenosis

    Left Sternal Border Murmurs

    • Systolic Murmur: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
    • Diastolic Murmur: Aortic regurgitation, pulmonic regurgitation
