Children: Heart Disease & Health
The normal heart, defects, heart murmurs, kawasaki disease, treatment, school programs and feeding an infant with congenital heart disease. Information provided by the American Heart Association.
http://www.americanheart.org/children/

Extractions: The two types of heart disease in children are "congenital" and "acquired." Congenital heart disease (also known as a congenital heart defect) is present at birth. Some defects in this category are patent ductus arteriosis, atrial septal defects and ventricular septal defects. Acquired heart disease, which develops sometime during childhood, includes diseases such as Kawasaki disease, rheumatic fever and infective endocarditis. Common diagnostic tests for these diseases are explained here. About 40,000 children are born with a heart defect each year. Most of these children can benefit from surgery even if the defect is severe. When surgery is necessary, many medical treatments are available to help the heart work properly. There is nothing that parents could have done to prevent these defects. Learn about conditions that can interfere with the work of the heart and treatment options in this section. Kawasaki disease is an example of acquired heart disease that occurs primarily in children who are 5 years old or younger. Although medical knowledge of the disease is still developing, there are steps you can take to recognize the symptoms and deal with the disease's effects. At least 8 of every 1,000 infants born each year have a heart defect. About 1 million Americans with cardiovascular defects are alive today. Though research is ongoing, at least 35 defects have now been identified.

Congestive Heart Failure
A discussion about CHF in dogs including audio of heart murmurs.
http://www.petdrs.com/chf.htm

Extractions: Animal Hospital of Casper - On Line Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) Congestive heart failure is one of the more common heart diseases seen in dogs, especially smaller breeds. A variety of signs may be present with CHF. This disease is normally seem in senior or geriatric age dogs. A sometimes insidious chronic cough develops over time and the pet may exhibit reduced exercise tolerance. Veterinarians must use all resources to accurately diagnose heart diseases, starting with a comprehensive physical examination and history. Below are examples of actual normal heart sounds and a heart murmur. (return to Physical exam Click on the Heart to hear actual recording of " Normal Heart Sounds and Heart Murmur "! The murmur sound is most often a result of an abnormality of the heart valves. Chronic infections, including dental disease, can cause the heart valves to become irritated and scarred for life. This diseased valves do not close tightly and, therefore, the murmur can be heard. Poor valve closure creates high blood pressure which results in retention of fluids in the lungs (sometimes the abdomen, as well). Poor circulation from the heart to the other organs (kidneys, liver and brain) can result in deterioration of those organs systems depending on good blood circulation. These pictures show the differences from a Normal heart and a CHF heart with diseased valves.
Berger: Mitral Valve Prolapse
A detailed look at mitral valve prolapse including heart murmurs, detection of heart valve abnormalities, exercise, endocarditis and prognosis among other things are discussed. Written by Christopher Berger.
http://www.uoregon.edu/~iishp/Berger4.html

Extractions: Mitral Valve Prolapse By Christopher Berger Introduction. Heart murmurs are abnormal heart sounds occurring due to abnormalities in one or more of the hearts four valves (1). The most common type of heart murmur is a mitral valve prolapse (MVP). Poor closure of the mitral valve and/or subsequent regurgitation of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium causes a clicking or shuffling sound heard mid- to late-systole. MVPs are reported to be the most common valvular heart disease in industrialized countries, affecting about 3% of adults (2,3,4). MVP occurs in 6-10% of young women and 4% of young men. The prevalence may exceed 10% in women ages 14-30. Following is a brief orientation to characteristics of MVP including methods of detection, associated disorders, and treatment. Abnormal Heart Sounds (Heart Murmurs). Depending upon when they occur during the normal cardiac cycle, heart murmurs can be classified into three types: systolic, diastolic, and continuous. Brukner and Khan identify eight systolic, two diastolic, and two continuous types of murmurs (5). Fabius identifies six systolic and two diastolic types of murmurs (6). Lillegard and Rucker identify five systolic, two diastolic, and one continuous type of murmur (7). Although sources differ regarding the number of diagnosable murmurs, the classification of when the murmur occurs is critical to an appropriate diagnosis. (Systolic murmurs are typically benign and diastolic murmurs are always pathological.) MVP is classified as a systolic murmur.
Innocent Heart Murmurs
Innocent heart murmurs are sounds made by the blood circulating through theheart's chambers and valves or through blood vessels near the heart.

http://www.aafp.org/afp/990800ap/558.html

Extractions: Advanced Search A patient information handout on heart murmurs in children, written by the authors of this article, is provided on page 565. Many normal children have heart murmurs, but most children do not have heart disease. An appropriate history and a properly conducted physical examination can identify children at increased risk for significant heart disease. Pathologic causes of systolic murmurs include atrial and ventricular septal defects, pulmonary or aortic outflow tract abnormalities, and patent ductus arteriosus. An atrial septal defect is often confused with a functional murmur, but the conditions can usually be differentiated based on specific physical findings. Characteristics of pathologic murmurs include a sound level of grade 3 or louder, a diastolic murmur or an increase in intensity when the patient is standing. Most children with any of these findings should be referred to a pediatric cardiologist. (Am Fam Physician 1999;60:558-65.) P rimary care physicians frequently encounter children with heart murmurs.

An article on this topic is available in this issue of AFP What is a heart murmur? A heart murmur is just a noise that the blood makes as it flows through the heart. It's like the noise water makes when it flows through a hose. Many healthy people have heart murmurs. About 80 percent of all children have a heart murmur at some time. What is a "normal" heart murmur? Most heart murmurs don't mean there is anything wrong. Your doctor may call these murmurs "innocent" or "functional." "Normal" is another word to describe these murmurs. A normal murmur is just a noise caused by blood flowing through a normal heart. A normal murmur can get louder when the blood flows faster through the heart. For example, when the body's temperature goes up, the blood flows faster. Doctors often hear heart murmurs when they check children who have a fever. Many normal murmurs become hard to hear as children grow older. Some murmurs just go away.
Children's Heart Institute | What Is A Heart Murmur?
Among some of the topics discussed are, causes of innocent and noninnocent murmurs and physical signs present. Audio to experience the different sounds.
http://childrenheartinstitute.org/educate/murmur/murmur.htm

Extractions: A heart murmur is a swishing or a whistling sound that the doctor hears when he listens to your child's heart with a stethoscope. The heart beat normally makes two sounds: the first is Lub and the second is Dub , these two sounds follow each other ( Lub Dub ) and are not separated by any extra sounds. A heart murmur will be heard as a swishing or a whistling sound in addition to the normal Lub-Dub sound. The moving blood sounds like the running water in your garden hose. A heart murmur may indicate that there is a heart problem or may be due to normal blood flow. A heart murmur is not a diagnosis or disease, it is a sign to alert our attention to check if there is anything wrong.

Z Contents of this page: Heart, section through the middle Alternative names Return to top Chest sounds - murmurs; Heart sounds - abnormal Definition Return to top Murmurs are blowing, whooshing, or rasping sounds produced by turbulent blood flow in or near the heart. Often, they are caused by turbulent blood flow through the heart valves. Considerations Return to top Heart sounds are evaluated by listening with a stethoscope ( auscultation ). They can be further evaluated with an echocardiogram to see what the exact cause of the murmur is. The heart has four chambers two upper chambers (called atria) and two lower chambers (ventricles). The heart has valves that temporarily close to permit blood flow in only one direction. The valves are located between the atria and ventricles, and between the ventricles and the major arteries from the heart.
Innocent Murmurs
Details on characteristics of murmurs, supraclavicular systolic murmurs and innocent continuous murmurs.
http://home.coqui.net/myrna/murmur.htm

Extractions: The table below describes 10 characteristics that can be described regarding each heart murmur. Most problems arise when trying to describe the shape: judge variation of intensity of the murmur; it may build-up(crescendo), rise and then fall (crescendo-decrescendo), decrease from a loud onset (decrescendo), or remain relatively constant (plateau). This murmur begins after the first heart sound and is best heard underneath the right clavicle. The murmur generally is grade II but can be grade III and usually is of short duration, occupying less than one half of systole. Murmur frequency is low and is diamond shaped with a somewhat noisy quality. The murmur radiates towards the neck particularly on the right. Respiration has no effect. The murmur intensity decreases significantly when the child sits with the shoulders hyperextended by bringing the arms behind the patient. This murmur is caused by turbulence in the major brachiocephalic arteries as these vessels arise from the aorta. Differential diagnosis is seldom a problem; the murmur of aortic valve stenosis may come to mind, but can easily be distinguished by its specific characteristics as well as the presence of an aortic ejection sound.
