31
during inspiration JVP rises or falls?
falls
32
does second heart sound fuse during inspiration?

suspected arrythmia
36
what can be the cause of 4th heart sound?
severe left ventricular hypertrophy
37
can you guess a situation when atrial contraction becomes more important than ventricular filling?
during high heart rate, because of reduced diastolic filling time
