Heart Sounds and Murmurs (3 Parts)

Synopsis
1: An auditory model with sounds and murmurs of mitral valve disease slowed down is used in conjunction with animation of the heart action and pressure changes in slow motion to simulate the sounds and murmurs associated with lesions in the region of the mitral valve.
2: An auditory model with the sounds and murmurs of aortic valve disease slowed down is used in conjunction with animation of the heart action and pressure changes in slow motion to simulate the sounds and murmurs associated with lesions in the region of the aortic valve. Each pathological condition dealt with is preceded by a short clinical introduction and is followed by a comment on treatment.
3: Simulates sounds and murmurs associated with certain common congenital heart lesions.
