Welcome to our video on understanding heart murmurs. In this comprehensive guide, we'll delve into what heart murmurs are, why they occur, and what they could indicate about your heart's health.First, let's explore the anatomy of the heart. The heart consists of four chambers: two atria and two ventricles, separated by valves that ensure blood flows in the right direction. In this video, we’ll explore the sounds of a healthy heart and the phenomenon of S2 splitting. The normal heartbeat consists of two sounds: ‘lub’ and ‘dub,’ representing valve closures during systole and diastole. S2 splitting occurs when the ‘dub’ sound splits into two components, A2 and P2, during inspiration due to delayed closure of the pulmonic valve. Understanding these sounds provides valuable insights into cardiac function.”, we’ll explore aortic stenosis, a condition where the aortic valve narrows, restricting blood flow from the heart. This narrowing creates a distinctive heart sound, often described as a harsh or loud murmur, heard during a physical examination. Understanding this sound can aid in the diagnosis of aortic stenosis, a condition that requires timely medical attention to prevent complications and ensure optimal heart health.”
