Significance of Systolic Murmurs in the Aged

New England Journal of Medicine, 1968
Abstract A prospective study of the heart murmurs in 30 elderly patients, none of whom had a history of rheumatic heart disease, was undertaken by use of phonocardiography, carotid-pulse recording and amyl nitrite. Systolic ejection murmurs were recorded in 29 patients, 24 increasing in intensity with amyl nitrite inhalation.

Initial clinical evaluation of cardiac systolic murmurs in the ED by noncardiologists

American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2004
It is not exactly known how ED physicians perform in evaluating cardiac systolic murmurs. In 203 consecutive medical ED patients with systolic murmur, we compared the initial clinical evaluation, including auscultation, with transthoracic ...

THE NORMAL SYSTOLIC MURMUR

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1960
Excerpt The terms "physiologic," "functional," "innocent" and "benign" have customarily been applied to heart murmurs which, by definition, arise in presumably normal hearts.

APICAL SYSTOLIC MURMUR

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1948
IN PREVIOUS reports 1 it has been pointed out that the true significance of the relationship of apical systolic murmur to underlying cardiac disease has not received due recognition. The consequences of failure to evaluate properly apical systolic murmur was brought to my attention during the late war, and it is to emphasize the result of ...

THE "INCIDENTAL" SYSTOLIC MURMUR

Pediatrics, 1970
The child with symptomatic heart disease is not generally much of a problem for the practicing pediatrician. He is promptly referred to a cardiac center or to a pediatric cardiologist for further evaluation. However, such is not the case with the asymptomatic child in whom a systolic murmur is heard incidentally during the course of a routine physical ...

Man with an ejection systolic murmur

Heart, 2021
A man in his 60s was referred to our clinic as a part of preoperative evaluation for non-cardiac surgery. The patient did not have any cardiovascular symptoms and had never been evaluated previously. Examination revealed a low volume pulse and an ejection systolic murmur best heard in the left parasternal region.

Excerpt The systolic murmur is not an uncommon finding in routine examinations. Reid and Fahr have reported an incidence of as high as 20 and 35 per cent in normal youthful patients.

Systolic Murmurs and Innocent Murmurs

1991
Cardiac murmurs are produced by turbulent blood flow. Turbulence is determined by the Reynolds number, which is the ratio of inertial to viscous forces in a fluid. The Reynolds number (NR) may be determined from the following formula: NR = (σ/η) \(bar V\)D where σ is the fluid density in gm/ml, η = fluid viscosity (poise), \(bar V\) = average velocity ...

Evaluation of the Systolic Murmur in the Elderly

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1981
ABSTRACT: A common clinical entity in the elderly population is the systolic murmur detected during cardiac auscultation. Although it can occur in patients of any age group, the approach to diagnosis differs in the elderly.
