Heart Murmurs | Locations, Maneuvers, Buzzwords

for the record, there are 2 small corrections: (1) The slides show two S1's marked on the visual representation of the murmurs. Obviously, it should say S1 and S2. (2) Mitral Stenosis is a diastolic murmur, however, our video incorrectly depicts it as being systolic on the slide about MS (the visual representation). Also (not a correction), remember that Aortic Regurgitation is described as a "blowing" murmur. That's all. The video is still bomb diggity awesome if I may say so myself

A professor at my school came up with a pretty great memory hook that I thought I would share: "(h)ARD fall, ASS bump, MSD (missed) u, MRS thru" ARD = Aortic Regurg, Diastolic; fall = decrescendo \ ASS = Aortic Stenosis, Systolic; bump = crescendo-decrescendo / \ MSD = Mitral Stenosis, Diastolic; u = decrescendo-crescendo \_/ MRS = Mitral Regurg, Systolic; thru = holo-systolic --- If you take a hARD fall, you'll have an ASS bump, if someone says they MSD you, then you and your MRS are thru Pulmonic follows same rules as aortic (in pulmonic area), Tricuspid follows same rules as mitral (in tricuspid area)

Used this video last year for step 1 and it came in super handy. Studying for step 2 now and I'm still getting questions right from what I learned on here a year ago. Just wanted to come back and say how clutch y'all are. Seriously. Thanks for doing what you do!

Have been going madd for hours trying to understand WHY HOCM is louder with decreased pre-load. None of these board review books or videos have an answer. U-World just says “that’s how it is”. Finally, a video that explains it in somewhat of an understandable concept. Understanding WHY always helps, and this video at least attempts to do that. Thank you guys, great content, keep up the great work!

You are far better, in terms of quality and details, than most of the lecturers in medical school. I think the lecturer should just turn your video during lecture time and leave. This will benefit all of us.

my god i don't even know what I learned in med school in those long lectures and paying thousands of dollars. We should just pay you instead

When medical students across borders were in distress .....but in desperation to understand concepts.....GOD CREATED DIRTY USMLE FOR THEIR SAVIOUR ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

You guys are awesome! A mnemonic I got from a friend that you guys might like: “if your arms were chopped into parts, you will probably die” so ARMS PRTS represent all the DIastolic murmurs.

After going to b&b, USMLE Rx,UW, FA i almost gave up on understanding systolic vs diastolic murmurs and was ready to just memorize them without logic.THANK YOU DIRTY, its soo simple to understand now!Legit took me just 5 minutes to understand the entire thingy. This channel has to be a standard recommendation for all those preparing for STEP1.PERIOD.

I'm only a minute or so into this video and I am absolutely blown away. I always struggle with this topic and it causes a lot of anxiety when answering practice questions, but this has made my life so much easier. Thank you so much!!!

Wow dude, in the first ten seconds I listened, you've already exceeded so many other videos. I love the mechanistic "logic" of how/when a sound would be heard. Thanks!

Amazing... My UWorld scores have been going up thanks to your videos. Thanks!

I only wish I'd have watched this sooner! I struggled with this for YEARS and this vid is what finally put it together for me. Thanks so so SO much!

Thank you for all that you do for making notoriously difficult concepts easy to understand and memorable.

I was struggling with this topic. You guys made it super easy! Thanks.

This video is awesome, I was able to get all of the heart murmur questions on my exam right thanks to this video. I highly recommend! Thanks so much!

You absolute legend, Ijust got wrecked with amboss cardio but now I can understand this stuff. Much appreciated

Thank you so much for putting your time, dedication and brains into making this video. So useful!!

I love you DM. None of my professors were able to explain this clearly. Some of them even get confused when they are talking without thinking. I was always confused by this topic, but now you clarified everything.

I have been legit learning murmurs since morning and I have learned more in 22 mins than I did the whole day.I I can't tell you how thankful I am for this.
