        Mild to moderate AS
        Late
        Severe
      4. Loudest on expiration and with leaning forward
      5. Radiating to carotid and apex but not axilla

    1. Arrhythmias
    2. Sudden Cardiac death
    3. Endocarditis
    4. Heart-failure-systolic and diastolic
    5. Associated with calcific coronary disease
    6. Aortic aneurysm
2. Aortic regurgitation
  1. Cause
    1. Chronic
      1. Aortic root dilatation
      2. Congenital bicuspid valve
      3. Rheumatic heart disease
    2. Acute
      1. Endocarditis
      2. Aortic dissection
      3. Ruptured Cusp
      4. Traumatic injury
      5. Failed repair
  2. Symptoms
    1. Palpitations
    2. Atypical chest pain
    3. Symptoms of left-sided heart failure
      1. Dyspnoea
      2. Orthopnoea
      3. Paroxysmal nocturnal dysmoea
  3. Signs
    1. Wide pulse pressure
    2. "waterhammer" pulse or Corrigan pulse
    3. Inferior and lateral displacement of apex beats
    4. Soft S, variable S2, S3
    5. Murmur
      1. Diastolic
      2. Louder when sitting forward and accentuate with expiration
      3. Decreases with valsalva manoeurve
Mitral valve
1. Mitral Regurgitation
  1. Definition
    1. can arise from abnormalities of any part of the mitral valve apparatus including the valve leaflets, annulus, chordae tendineae, and papillary muscles
  2. Cause
    1. Mitral valve prolapse-degenerative
    2. Infective endocarditis
    3. LV dysfunction with annular dilatation
    4. Rheumatic
    5. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
  3. Symptoms
    1. Atrial fibrillation
      1. Palpitation
      2. Embolic phenomena
    2. Pulmonary hypertension
    3. Left heart failure
      1. Paroxysmal dysnoea
      2. Orthopnoea
      3. Dysnoea
    4. Asymptomatic
  4. Signs
    1. Soft S1, Splitting of S2, S3 gallop
    2. Murmur
      1. Pansystolic
      2. Heard best over apex
      3. Radiates to axilla
    3. Mitral valve prolapse
      1. Mid systolic click
      2. late systolic murmur
2. Mitral stenosis
