Question
Chapter 21, Problem 1CT
Summary Introduction
To review:
The reason of the gurgling sound at the beginning of the systole.
Introduction:
The abnormal sounds during the heartbeat cycle of a person are known as heart murmurs. These sounds are indicative of any medical condition. The swishing or whooshing sounds besides the normal “lub-dup” sounds of the heart are the heart murmurs. The heart murmurs can be congenital or may develop later in a person’s life.

- Before Leo is released from the hospital, his physician examines him thoroughly one final time. Dr. Tong detects with his stethoscope a high-pitched blowing systolic murmur. This murmur is best heard directly under his left nipple. A regurgitant heart valve is suspected. However, when Dr. Tong reviews Leo's medical records, he sees no prior history of a heart murmur. He makes a note to follow up with this when Leo returns. What is a systolic murmur? What is a regurgitant heart valve? The timing and location of the murmur implicates which of Leo’s valves is involved?arrow_forwardWhy is the Sino-atrial node called the pacemaker of the heart?arrow_forwardSelect the best answer or answers from the choices given: Which of the following can lead to decreased venous return of blood to the heart?
