Good quality headphones or loudspeakers (capable to transmit all frequency components) are necessary to hear the sounds at best quality .
Sounds were recorded over the mitral valve area (left apex, 5th intercostal space).
S1: sound 1, S2: Sound 2.
Electrical systole starts at the Q wave and ends at the end of the T wave on the ECG followed by electrical diastolewhich lasts until the next QRS complex. S1 signals the start of mechanical systole and S2 signals the end of mechanical systole.
This murmur was recorded at the point of its maximal intensity over the mitral valve area (left apex, 5th intercostal space).
S1: sound 1, S2: Sound 2.
Electrical systole starts at the Q wave and ends at the end of the T wave on the ECG followed by electrical diastole which lasts until the next QRS complex. S1 signals the start of mechanical systole and S2 signals the end of mechanical systole.

Electrical systole starts at the Q wave and ends at the end of the T wave on the ECG followed by electrical diastole which lasts until the next QRS complex. S1 signals the start of mechanical systole and S2 signals the end of mechanical systole. Mild respiratory sounds can be heard in the “background”.

Electrical systole starts at the Q wave and ends at the end of the T wave on the ECG followed by electrical diastole which lasts until the next QRS complex. S1 signals the start of mechanical systole and S2 signals the end of mechanical systole.
Mild pulmonic insufficiency (PI) was also present but no diastolic murmur could be distinguished during auscultation of this dog.
This murmur was recorded at the point of its maximal intensity over the pulmonic valve area (left heart base).

This murmur was recorded at the point of its maximal intensity over the aortic valve area (left heart base).
S1: sound 1, S2: Sound 2. Electrical systole starts at the Q wave and ends at the end of the T wave on the ECG followed by electrical diastole which lasts until the next QRS complex. S1 signals the start of mechanical systole and S2 signals the end of mechanical systole.
Mild mitral insufficiency was also present (not shown on this dPCG).
This murmur was recorded at the point of its maximal intensity over the pulmonic area (3rd intercostal space, left heart base).
S1: sound 1, S2: Sound 2. Electrical systole starts at the Q wave and ends at the end of the T wave on the ECG followed by electrical diastole which lasts until the next QRS complex. S1 signals the start of mechanical systole and S2 signals the end of mechanical systole. S1 and S2 are poorly demarcated on this dPCG due to the continuous murmur.
This murmur was recorded at the point of its maximal intensity over the tricuspid valve area (right cranial hemithorax).
S1: sound 1, S2: Sound 2. Electrical systole starts at the Q wave and ends at the end of the T wave on the ECG followed by electrical diastole which lasts until the next QRS complex. S1 signals the start of mechanical systole and S2 signals the end of mechanical systole. Mild respiratory sounds can be heard in the “background”.
