Auscultation of the heart in patients with aortic stenosis can be very helpful in both the diagnosis and determining the severity of disease. The typical murmur of aortic stenosis is a high ...

THE primary purpose of this report is to emphasize the relation of a high-pitched "squeaking" or "musical" systolic murmur to aortic stenosis and calcification of the aortic valve. This is not so ...

A: People with aortic stenosis are often diagnosed in the way it happened for you. When listening to your heart with a ...

Diagnosing aortic stenosis usually begins with a physical exam. Your healthcare provider often detects a heart murmur, a ...

Disease of the cardiac valves and other cardiac structures frequently results in abnormal, turbulent blood flow within the heart, causing murmurs. Careful auscultation of heart murmurs is an ...

This research could influence future clinical guidelines, improving the way severe aortic stenosis is assessed and ultimately leading to better patient outcomes. The study was conducted by the ...

Potential residual confounding by unmeasured variables could have affected the findings, despite model adjustments for known risk factors for aortic stenosis. The possibility of an overlap in the ...

DAVID MONTGOMERY: Aortic stenosis is a tightening of one of the four major valves of the heart. The aortic valve is particularly important because the aortic valve is the gateway to the rest of ...
