1.Mid diastolic
2.Presystolic
3.Combined
B) Those arising at semilunar valves
1.Early diastolic
2.Mid diastolic sounding early diastolic
6. Mechanism and Causes of
Diastolic Murmurs at Apex

2.Left atrial myxoma
3.Cor-triatrium
4.Constriction of AV groove as in constrictive
pericarditis
5.Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (narrow inflow
cavity
7. Mechanism and Causes of Diastolic
Murmurs at Apex
B.Increased flow across AV valve

(VSD,Ductus,systemic artero venous
fistula,RSOV in to right ventricle,aotopulmonary
window/fistula, Truncus Arteriosus)

10. Mechanism of MDM in MS
• As the mitral valve become stenotic the
left atrial pressure increases with a
gradient between left atrium and left
ventricle in diastole. The opening snap
result from abrupt opening of the doming
mitrale valve. As the atrial contraction
contributes to increased gradient in pre
systole, there is pre systolic accentuation
of murmur
11. Mechanism of pre systolic
murmur
• Atrial contraction
• Persistent atrio ventricular gradient
• Left ventricular contraction in presystole
reducing mitral funnel

When alteration in any of the above features occur, the
murmur of Mitral stenosis should not be relied upon to
assess the severity of mitral stenosis
16. Character of murmur

• Non calcific valve – Very low frequency,
loud diastolic murmur with a thrill
• Severe calcific valve – high frequency,
less intensity , no thrill
• Heard with bell of diaphragm

20. • Length of murmur is directly related to the
severity of tricuspid stenosis
• Significant tricuspid stenosis with shorter
or no murmur : causes
1)Rheumatic TS with accompanying MS, severe PAH
,Increased Right ventricular end diastolic pressure
2) Diuretic therapy in TS
3) Atrial fibrillation ( absent pre systolic murmur)
4) Ebstein’s Anomaly of tricuspid valve

28. Austin Flint Murmur
•
•
•
•
In moderate to severe AR
Mid diastolic and/or presystolic
Low pitched best heard with bell
Heavy jet of aortic regurgitation impinging on the
anterior leaflet of mitral valve preventing adequate
opening of the valve and creating turbulence to flow
from left atrium to ventricle in diastole
• with premature closure of mitral valve as in free
severe AR or a/c AR the pre systolic murmur does
not occur.
29. Austin Flint Murmur
• With isometric hand grip, the degree of
aortic regurgitation increases due to
elevated peripheral vascular resistance
and flint murmur increases.
• With administration of vaso dilators , the
murmur decreases or disappear due to
reduction in severity of AR

32. Other Mid Diastolic Murmur
• Carey Coomb’s murmurs
– Acute rheumatic fever, mitral valve structures acutely inflamed with
some thickening and edema turbulence of flow during the rapid filling
phase + moderate MR [increased mitral inflow in diastole]
– Low pitched short MDM.
– Distinguished from MS MDM by the absence of opening snap before
the murmur
– good evidence of active carditis
34. AR murmur
• Timing - Early diastolic
• Site of best audibility – best heard along left sternal
border, but is also well heard at right 2nd space and
apex.

41. Murmur of Pulmonary Regurgitation with PAH
(Graham – Steell murmur)

• Length- very short to pan diastolic
Length of murmur reflects the duration of
pressure difference between pulmonary
artery and right ventricle in diastole
42. • Site of best audibility – pulmonary area
• Character – high pitched (PR with no PAH
is low frequency )
• Conduction – left sternal border 3 rd and 4
th spaces
43. Relation to physiological act
• Respiration – may incrs during inspirationmainly in PR with no PAH
• Posture – better heard in supine posture
,passive leg raising
• No influence for isometric hand grip/
vasopressors/amyl nitrite inhalation

45. Other diastolic murmurs
• Cabot– Locke Murmur- [Diastolic Flow murmur]
- in severe anemia
– The Cabot–Locke murmur is a diastolic murmur that sounds similar to
aortic insufficiency but does not have a decrescendo; it is heard best at
the left sternal border. [High flow thru coronary vessels, LMCA, LAD]
– The murmur resolves with treatment of anaemia.
• Dock’s murmur
– diastolic crescendo-decrescendo, with late accentuation, [consistent
with blood flow through the coronary] in a sharply localized area, 4 cm
left of the sternum in the 3LICS, detectable only when the patient was
sitting upright.
– Due to stenosis of LAD
46. Other diastolic murmurs
• Key–Hodgkin murmur
– EDM of AR; it has a raspy quality, [sound of a saw cutting through
wood]. Hodgkin correlated the murmur with retroversion of the aortic
valve leaflets in syphilitic disease.
• Rytand’s murmur
– Late diastolic murmur in complete heart block
