Difference between Cardiac examination and Heart sounds

Cardiac examination vs. Heart sounds

In medicine, the cardiac examination, also precordial exam, is performed as part of a physical examination, or when a patient presents with chest pain suggestive of a cardiovascular pathology. Heart sounds are the noises generated by the beating heart and the resultant flow of blood through it.

Similarities between Cardiac examination and Heart sounds

Cardiac examination and Heart sounds have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Aortic stenosis, Gallop rhythm, Heart failure, Heart murmur, Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, Intercostal space, Pericardial friction rub, Pericarditis, Physical examination.

Aortic stenosis

Aortic stenosis (AS or AoS) is the narrowing of the exit of the left ventricle of the heart (where the aorta begins), such that problems result.

Heart failure

Heart failure (HF), often referred to as congestive heart failure (CHF), is when the heart is unable to pump sufficiently to maintain blood flow to meet the body's needs.
