Ninja Nerds!
In this lecture, Professor Zach Murphy will discuss Heart Sounds and Murmurs. We will lecture on the following objectives:

1. Introduction to Heart Sounds
Gain a foundational understanding of the normal cardiac cycle and its corresponding heart sounds (S1, S2).
Learn the importance of heart sounds in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases.

2. Pathophysiology of Heart Murmurs
Acquire knowledge of the underlying mechanisms that result in heart murmurs.
Distinguish between systolic and diastolic murmurs and the clinical significance of each.

3. Mitral Valve Murmurs
Deep dive into mitral valve murmurs’ types, causes, and manifestations, including mitral stenosis and mitral regurgitation.
Understand how to differentiate these murmurs from others based on timing, quality, and anatomical landmarks.

4. Aortic Valve Murmurs
Explore the key features of aortic valve murmurs, including aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation.
Learn the clinical indications that might suggest the presence of an aortic valve condition.

5. Diagnostic Criteria and Tools
Familiarize yourself with diagnostic approaches based on the latest clinical guidelines, from auscultation to echocardiography.
Learn the grading system for murmurs and the role of additional diagnostic modalities like Doppler studies.

6. Management Strategies for Mitral and Aortic Valve Murmurs
Discuss evidence-based treatment options, from pharmacological interventions to valve replacement surgery.
Review the indications for surgical referral and expected outcomes.

7. Potential Complications and Prognosis
Learn about the potential adverse outcomes associated with untreated or mismanaged mitral and aortic valve conditions.
Discuss prognostic indicators and the importance of timely intervention.
