Pulsus Paradox
-
A murmur of Ventricular Septal defect typically presents
- High Pitched holosystolic
- heard on left sternal border 3-5 IC space
-
Blood pressure falls to its lowest point when
During Diastole
-
A period of silence that occurs between phase 1 and 2 of the korocoft sounds then reapears 10-15mmhg later, can cause underestimation of systolic or over estimation of diastolic pressure
Auscultatory gap
-
Edema that has a noticiable deep pit, last more than a minute and dependent extremity looks fuller and swollen
Edema scale 3+
-
Edema pits more than 1, no readily decetable distortion, disappears in 10-15 secs
2+ Edema
-
Very deep pitting, 2-5 min, dependent extremity grossly distorted
4+
-
Murmer grading scale
- Grade 1
