Medical Legend: heart sounds and mumurs self test

Introduction to the Podcast and Game Format

[00:00] Hello and welcome back to The Learn Medicine Show, Dr Coleman here. Today we are testing your knowledge on heart sounds and murmurs in a game show format called Medical Legend. The rules of this game are very simple. There will be

[00:20] eight multiple choice questions and your score at the end of the test will determine your overall rank and see whether you will be crowned a medical legend. So if you have what it takes get your pen and paper ready and let's play medical legend. Question one so just

[00:40] Just to ease you into this, we're going to start with a nice easy question. Listen to the following heart sounds and select the most appropriate description.

Game Rules and Scoring System

[01:00] Now here are your four possible answers, but only one of them is correct. Is the correct answer the S4 heart sound, the S3 heart sound, the atrial gallop or normal heart sounds?

[01:20] And the correct answer is normal heart sounds. Question 2

Question 1: Identifying Normal Heart Sounds

[01:40] Listen to the following heart sounds and select the most appropriate description. Okay, so here are your four possible answers in Remember Only One.

[02:00] one of them is correct. Is the correct answer ejection systolic murmur or is it the S3 heart sound, the atrial gallop or mitral stenosis? The most

Question 2: Recognizing the S3 Heart Sound

[02:20] Most appropriate description here is the S3 heart sound. Question 3. Listen to the following heart murmur and select the most appropriate description.

[02:40] And here are your four possible answers. Mitral regurgitation, tricuspid regurgitation,

Question 3: Understanding Pansystolic Murmur

[03:00] Pancystolic murmur or ventricular septal defect? Think carefully about your answer. The correct answer is pancystolic murmur.

[03:20] Okay we're just going to pause for a moment because I recognised that this question was a little bit tricky and the reason for that is because the question actually requests for a description which is a pansystolic murmur but all the other answers were diagnoses which produce a pansystolic murmur. So if you did

Clarification on Question 3 and Common Mistakes

[03:40] choose one of the diagnosis, well done for recognising this, but you don't get any points for this question, it's a cutthroat quiz. Let's move on to the next question. Question 4. Listen to the heart murmur and select the most appropriate description.

[04:00] Okay, so here are your

Question 4: Identifying Ejection Systolic Murmur

[04:20] possible answers remember that only one of these is correct. Is the correct answer pulmonary stenosis, machinery murmur, pancystolic murmur or ejection systolic murmur? Remember you are selecting the most appropriate

[04:40] description. And the correct answer is ejection systolic murmur. Question 5. Listen to the following murmur

[05:00] and select the most appropriate description. So what is the most appropriate description for this murmur? Is it mid

Question 5: Mid-Diastolic Murmur with Opening Snap

[05:20] diastolic murmur with an opening snap, mitral stenosis, the S3 heart sound, or mitral regurgitation? Have you arrived at your final answer?

[05:40] The correct answer is mid-diastolic murmur with an opening snap. Congratulations to those who got that answer correct and commiserations to those who chose mitral stenosis. This of course is a diagnosis and not a description. Let's move on

[06:00] on to the next question.

[06:20] Here are your possible answers for question 6. Early diastolic murmur Machinery murmur

Question 6: Recognizing Early Diastolic Murmur

[06:40] merma, pancystolic merma, or ejection systolic merma? The correct answer is early diastolic merma.

[07:00] Question 7. Listen to the following murmur and select the most appropriate description.

Question 7: Identifying Ejection Systolic Murmur with Split S2

[07:20] Okay, so here we are at the penultimate question for that ever so coveted title of medical

[07:40] Here are your possible answers for question 7. Ejection systolic murmur, aortic stenosis, S4 heart sound and ejection systolic murmur with a split S2.

[08:00] Think very carefully now, a lot rise on this answer. The correct answer is ejection systolic murmur with a split S2. Question 8.

Question 8: Machinery Murmur and Final Challenge

[08:20] Only one question now stands between you and the title of medical legend. Listen to this final murmur and select the most appropriate description.

[08:40] And for question 8 here are your 4 possible answers. Is this an early diastolic murmur? Machinery murmur?

[09:00] A pancystolic murmur or an ejection systolic murmur? Do you have your final answer? The correct answer is machinery murmur.

[09:20] A special congratulations to everyone that's managed to get this far through this episode of Medical Legend. Tally up your results and let's see what your ranking is. So for three correct answers you will score the ranking of medical student.

Scoring, Rankings, and Celebrating Medical Legends

[09:40] If you manage to get four correct answers, you've achieved the ranking of House Officer. If you got five correct answers, you're a specialist registrar. Six correct answers gives you the ranking of MD. If you got seven correct answers, you are a professor. But only those who scored eight correct answers

[10:00] answers can claim the title of Medical Legend. Congratulations to all those who achieved the top score. Make sure you comment below and let us know that you are a Medical Legend. Tell all your family and friends, go out celebrate, make sure they know what a legend you are. Thanks for tuning
