Clear and Crisp. Watch it and go through your notes. 8yrs and I'll still recommend this because there's no other video that explains murmurs this clearly.

The best illustration I have ever watched about murmurs. I am really thankful.

This is the BEST, most useful, clearest and most practical lecture on heart sounds, in my experience. Thank you soooo much for sharing.

This is by far, one of the best heart murmur tutorials on youtube. Thanks!

3rd year med student from India. I love your videos and they're really helpful. Thanks a lot!

best one.. this person has really has a knack for teaching

Simple, clear, and short video describing both systolic and diastolic murmurs .

Wow! Thank you so much sir. I am a MS4 US MD going into Family Medicine. Thank you for these videos and helping me brush up on my skills. THANK YOU.

holy crap i learnt more from this video than all the heart sounds and murmur lectures I had in school. and after i was done watching i realised that its a 10 year old video?? this is amazing! no wonder my professors think your videos are the best

This is absolutely the best video on this topic on youtube. God, it made everything so clear

NP student about to start clinical rotations. I wanted to brush up on my Cardiac skills and your videos are excellent! Easy to follow and plenty of examples. Thank you.

No one has really bothered to explain how the shape of murmur is linked to the pressure gradient. Good job on that, Dr Eric! Your videos are truly eye openers ! Thank you so much

thank you for the thorough yet simplified explanation of murmurs. cheers

You are a hero dear Professor!

after all the years i've been with you, there is always a lecture which gives me *wow-brain-blown* moments. thanks

Thank you so much this makes more sense to me as a medical student.

One of the best lectures on heart sounds and murmurs!! Thank youuuu!!

One of the best murmur lecture I've seen. Thank you so much!

обожаю кардиологию и Генделя и ещё у Эрика приятный тембр и манера подачи! его лекции помогают мне обучать студентов, за что огромная благодарность! принтскриню конешно))

very useful, I finally understood the differences, loud and clear..

Ver Nice~

Thanks a lot! I´ve seen already some of your videos and find them excellent. The physiological explanations are, hands down, one of the best ones I´ve ever seen. Please keep posting more interesting videos. Thanks again!

PA student here. Thank you for putting all the concepts together and building them up into the examples. We were given all of these pieces separately and seeing how the pressure difference in structures produced the murmur finally made sense of it to me.

What a resource, and for free? Thank you so much, such a thoughtful act my friend!!

The best murmurs tutorial-clear and concise.

I'm not a medical student, I'm a patient who underwent mitral valve repair and aortic valve replacement surgery. I just think this stuff is really interesting to learn!

Thanks for including the practice questions at the end; they were super helpful!

As an older clinical cardiologist I applaud your very timely, expert and excellent lecture. Well done and much needed. I hate the reflex: "systolic murmur, lets get an echo!"

Thank you so much. I am an NP student and this information was extremely helpful as a review. It was by far the best review on murmurs!

Thank you so much. You're really appreciated by us all.

Dr. Strong! This is fantastic! Thank you for making this available on the web!

well describing clinical findind of cardiology .this is one of the best explication tutorial video

Thank you so much for the concise review of heart murmurs!! I'm a third year med student in Australia and have just commenced my cardio rotation; this video has been a life-saver in helping me review the basics -much appreciated!

Very helpful to understand the basic physiology of heart murmur!

it's an awesome lecture. I struggled to learn heart murmur when I was a medical student, and I have been confused up until now when auscultating the heart. Now I get it. I tried to memorize when I was a student, now I understand the murmur. Thanks a lot!!

GREAT. VERY VERY INFORMATIVE. EXCELLENT NARRATION. SIMPLICITY AT ITS BEST.

The atrial kick is not the same as the opening snap. The atrial kick is the extra push of blood through the mitral valve as a consequence of atrial contraction, which occurs at the end of diastole. The opening snap is the sound of a mitral valve opening at the very beginning of diastole. My video, "Examples of mitral stenosis murmurs" contains a good opening snap/MS example with both an audio clip, and a picture of the sound waves. Hope that helps!

brilliant and awesome crescendo and decrescendo of the decrescendo in murmur's art , continous and the best all over the pericordium. many thanks in deed...........

Incredibly useful video, thanks for making it so easy to understand !

In a patient with AS, the % increase in gradient from 50ms after systole onset to mid systole at 150ms might be 300%. While in MR, this % increase might be closer to 50%. On a phonocardiogram (a visual representation of the sound waves causing murmurs), the crescendo-decrescendo nature of an MR murmur can sometimes be noted, but the steep crescendo segment at the beginning of systole, and decrescendo segment at the end are so brief that our ears can't perceive it, and thus it sounds uniform.

Wow, this is the most helpful video I think I’ve ever seen. Thank you!

This is the best video I've seen about heart murmurs. The audio clips are very helpful!!

Best lecture on heart murmurs i have ever watched

This was an exceptional Murmur tutorial better than anything Kaplan has put out ! Thank you so much Doctor!!!

Thank you for the extensively explaining video. Very helpful.

very easy to understand and I'm no medical student, great lecture :)

that is very useful and i really appreciate your effort, Dr Eric. Thanks!

thank u so much sir for your videos. These are the assets for medical students and new doctors like me. Massive respect from the core of my heart.May Allah bless u sir.

Fantastic and well-spoken. Thank you from an M3.

I am a very good fan of strong medicine lectures. Thank you Dr. Strong 😊

Thanks a lot for a great video! I'm a medicine student from the University of Buenos Aires, in Argentina. Last week we had an 60 y/o patient with mitral stenosis due to rheumatic fever as it's still somewhat common to see here in public hospitals. anyways,thanks again!

Thank you a lot!!! Perfect explanation! You are the best!

Very good review, Dr. Strong. Sometimes it's worthwhile to glance at adult cardiology in order to rediscover what --and what doesn't-- resonate in children. Preparing to maintain certification in pediatrics. Very helpful. Thank you.

it's grateful to hear you sir... best explained

I stumbled upon this earlier today, studying for my usmle and I find these lectures to be informative and easy to understand. Thank you so much for taking your time to make these for the general public. They are incredibly helpful. I've always had a hard time with heart sounds.

This is great really as educational resource. Thanks to doctor Eric.

this clip is fantastic, thanks a lot Eric. I wish lectures here in Germany were as brilliant and clear as yours!

Heart murmurs are so difficult to learn, but this video helps me a lot. Thanks so much! So excellent video.

thank you very much.very useful and easily understandable

Absolutely Incredible.Nearly lodt hope on learning these stuffs properly

Excellent and clear video. Thank you very much!

Thank you very much for the lecture! I'm a medical student from brazil, this helped me a lot!

Thank you so much. Your lectures are amazing!

Amazing. Thanks doc for such organized presentation.

Absolutely perfect!!! Thank you sooooo much, sir! Please please have more videos

Very useful, thanks a lot.

Thank you Dr Strong. I nearly wanted to skip these 2 murmur thing lecture of you. I am so aversive of it. I anyhow think this is the great lecture. I am glad that i did

Excellent presentation! Very helpful sir!

Great efforts put in making this video. Thank you so much for the pains taken 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Tear come to my eyes! So grateful...! Thank you so much.

It's an example of how murmurs don't localize very reliably to a specific place on the chest wall. While aortic murmurs are most often best heart in the right 2nd intercostal space, in an individual patient they can be best head just about anywhere in the chest. The "tricuspid area" is actually a common place for aortic regurg murmurs.

Really well explained. I was just reviewing, but it was very helpful.

I HAD TROUBLE TO UNDERSTAND THE TIMING ,SHAPE,AND THE PITCH OF THE MURNURS NOW ON WITH THIS LECTURE I'M TOTALLY CLEAR , I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND YOUR DEDICATION. THANKS!

Thank you very much; a great finding; excelent review.

Best video lecture on the topic. Great doctor teacher. Happy doctor's day sir !( 1july22)

than you Dr.Eric .Excellent presentation and it very helpful.

Laura, I'm glad you found them helpful. The music is Handel's Suite No. 1 in F major, Hornpipe.

This is very helpful. Thanks a lot!! God bless ya

This was extremely helpful in studying for my boards.. Thanks for the examples with great explanations.

Brilliant resource. Thank you so much.

I have no words to thank you enough. Veni, vidi, vici!

Excellent teaching tool! Thank you so much.

Best video ever on heart murmur, thanks you sir from India 🇮🇳

Great, looking forward to it. Your videos have helped me a lot, thanks.

thanks a lot for the vivid explanation. it was helpful!

great examples! thank you!

Very helpful, i finally understand. If only they were this easy to pick up in real patients haha

The great lecture. Thank you!

Thanks for explaining - makes more sense now. In AS the aortic and LV pressures follow each other more closely, so any difference takes longer to evolve, hence the more obvious crescendo-decrescendo. A subtlety though, as you say, and unlikely to come up in med school exams :) Keep up the great videos!

lost for words, unbelievable lecture

very good for understanding .cleared my concepts.

your presentation is verynice.easily anyone can understand.upload more cardiology vedios.god bless you

Fantastic video! Thank you for sharing

excellent description and explanation of heart murmurs. Dr AK Lavania
