What is a systolic heart murmur?
heart murmur is another sound that occurs between cardiac rhythms and can generally be detected by a stethoscope. Murmurs is classified as diastolic, systolic and continuous, depending on when they occur in the heart rhythm cycle. The systolic heart murmur occurs when the muscles withdraw and push blood from the heart. It starts before or during the first sound of the heart rhythm and ends before or during the second sound. Murmurs can also be caused by factors such as high blood pressure, anemia, pregnancy, fever and excessive thyroid. Most of these beaching will disappear on themselves, and when they stay, they do not require any treatment.
A systolic heart murmur can be either innocent or abnormal. The difference may usually be detected by a routine test with a stethoscope. When the murmur is present, the doctor checks the length of the rustle and where it happens and if it has a high, medium or low climb. They will also see whether the sound is heard in the throat and back as well as in the chest, and whether the patient's position changeinfluencing the murmur. The test will also include the creation of the patient's history and the search for other symptoms of heart disease, such as the skin, shortness of breath, dizziness and fainting.
If an abnormal murmur seems to be present, the patient will generally refer to a cardiologist. Other tests such as electrocardiogram (ECG) and echocardiography are used to confirm the initial diagnosis and to determine what causes the murmur. The ECG records the heart's electrical activity and shows the speed and rhythm of the heart rhythm. Echocardiography uses sound waves to create a heart image and reveals how valves and chambers work. The treatment of abnormal Murmur usually does not include the treatment of the rustle itself, but the basic physical cause.
The doctor will include a systolic heart murmur on a scale of one to six depending on its noise level. The systolic heart murmur 1/6 is weak while the murmur 6/6 is very loud. The systolic heart murmur is classified as a murmur that comes from valves and surrounding structures, or as a regurgitant murmur that occurs when blood flows from a high pressure chamber to a low pressure chamber of the heart.
systolic heart murmur can be further classified as functional or organic. Functional murmur is in the heart without abnormalities and is generally innocent. Functional murmur, which is caused by physical conditions such as anemia, pregnancy, thyroid disorders or high blood pressure, tend to disappear as soon as the health problem is resolved. The organic murmur of the systolic heart is the result of structural defects in the heart or the main blood vessels. Abnormal heart murmur in children generally related to congenital heart defect; In adults are usually caused problems with heart valve related to age, infection or disease.
