SEMILUNAR VALVES

A

Pulmonic semilunar valve

23

24
Q

Blood normally flows silently through the heart

A

murmurs

25
Q

a swooshing or blowing sound resulting from turbulence created within the vascular system

A

murmurs

26
Q

CYCLES OF HEART SOUNDS

A

-Rapid ventricular filling
-Slow ventricular filling
-Isovolumetric contraction
-Ventricular ejection
-Isovolumetric relaxation

27
Q

-2nd ICS at the right sternal border
-Base of the heart

A

Aortic area

28
Q

-2nd or 3rd ICS at the left sternal border
-Base of the heart

A

Pulmonic area

29
Q

-3rd to 5th ICS at the left sternal border

A

Erb’s point

30
Q

-5th ICS near the left MCL
-Apex of the heart

A

Mitral (apical)

31
Q

4th or 5th at the left lower sternal border

A

Tricuspid area

32
Q

Right 2nd ICS to apex of heart

A

Aortic area

33
Q

2nd to 3rd ICS at the left sternal border

A

Pulmonic area

34
Q

2nd to 4th ICS at the left sternal border

A

Left atrial area

35
Q

3rd to 5th ICS at the sternal border

A

Right atrial area

36
Q

2nd to 5th ICS, extended over the sternum

A

Left ventricular area

37
Q

2nd to 5th, centered over the sternum

A

Right ventricular area

38
Q

a faint, clear, rhythmic tapping noise that gradually increases in intensity

A

Phase 1

39
Q

a swishing sound that is heard as the vessel distends with blood

A

Phase 2

40
Q

sounds become more intense, vessel is open in systole but not in diastole

A

Phase 3

41
Q

sounds begin to muffle, and pressure is closest to diastolic arterial pressure

A

Phase 4

42
Q

sounds disappear because vessel remains open

A

Phase 5

43
Q

IPPA (Inspection, palpation, percussion, auscultation)/Sitting, supine, and left lateral

A

ASSESSMENT PROPER

44
Q

IPPA

A

Inspection, palpation, percussion, auscultation

45
Q

Use all 4 techniques of physical assessment to assess the cardiovascular system

A

IPPA (Inspection, palpation, percussion, auscultation)

46
Q

Perform the assessment in 3 positions

A

Sitting, supine, and left lateral
