Heart Sounds | S1 S2 S3 S4 and Murmurs Nursing Assessment

Heart sounds (S1, S2, S3, S4, murmurs) for nursing assessment examination. This video details the anatomy of the heart, heart sound auscultation points (sites), blood flow, diastole, systole, tips for distinguishing S1 from S2, and how to use the diaphragm and bell of the stethoscope when listening the atrioventricular (AV) and semilunar (SL) valve closure, such as the aortic, pulmonic (S2 sounds), tricuspid, and mitral valves (S1 sounds) and the extra heart sounds such as S3, S4, and murmurs. In addition, I talk about patient positioning to obtain the best acoustic sounds for heart sounds that includes sitting-up/supine, left side placement, and sitting-up, leaning forward. In the next video, I will perform a cardiac assessment of the heart by demonstrating how to place the stethoscope's chest piece to listen to heart sounds.

I can't thank you enough for your videos and your free quizzes! You make everything way more understandable. Your videos are usually playing when I'm driving to and from school or clinical!

OMG. This is such a big help. I am currently reviewing for my NCLEX-RN exam and I have been out of practice for 8yrs now, graduated 11 yrs ago. I have forgotten so much of what I learned in college due to the many jobs I worked for all these years that are all in no way related to my profession. I will admit, this exam scares the hell out of me but your video/s (thank God I found you!) will surely play a part in me passing this exam and getting my license. I am claiming it!! And I hope to be just like you someday!! THANK YOUUUU!!!

your videos are excellent. I am an experienced nurse with OR practice for over 30 years. I am now transitioning into education. Since I have been off the floors and experience for years, these videos are great. (along with my books and college approved sources). I need to know more than my students and need more than a brush up. thanks.

Seriously, this helped so much. And I really appreciate the notes on the board, I'm the type of student who needs to see things written down.
