17 lip 2023 · Heart sounds are created from blood flowing through the heart chambers as the cardiac valves open and close during the cardiac cycle. Vibrations of these structures from the blood flow create audible sounds — the more turbulent the blood flow, the more vibrations that get created.
FIGURE I: The normal four heart sounds. Young man, age 19. (A) Tracings recorded at the apex. The second from above is a high frequency tracing and reveals the three components of the first sound. The third from above is a medium frequency tracing and reveals the III and IV sounds.

Physiological causes include healthy young adult, athletes, pregnancy and fever. S3 is usually pathological after the age of 40 and is associated with heart failure. S3 accompanied by tachycardia in heart failure result in ‘triple rhythm’ or gallop rhythm resembling the sound of galloping horse.
Heart Sounds. When a stethoscope is placed on the chest over different regions of the heart, four basic heart sounds (S 1, S 2, S 3 and S 4) can be heard (listening to heart sounds is called cardiac auscultation). The sound waves responsible for heart sounds (including abnormal sounds such as murmurs) are generated by vibrations induced by ...
