In medicine, heart sounds are the "sounds heard over the cardiac region produced by the functioning of the heart. There are four distinct sounds: the first occurs at the beginning of systole and is heard as a "lubb" sound; the second is produced by the closing of the aortic valve and pulmonary valve and is heard as a "dupp" sound; the third is produced by vibrations of the ventricular walls when suddenly distended by the rush of blood from the heart atria; and the fourth is produced by atrial contraction and ventricular filling."[1]
Normal heart sounds
A diagram of the cardiac cycle is available and helps understand the normal heart sounds.[2]
S1
S1, which originates from closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves is normally louder than S2 at the cardiac apex (fifth left intercostal space).[3]
S2
S2 is normally louder than S1 at the cardiac base (second left intercostal space).[4]
The S2 is composed of A2 and P2:
- A2 originates from closure of the aortic valve
- P2 originates from closure of the pulmonic valve, is best heard at the cardiac base (second left intercostal space), and is quieter than A2.
