Murmurs are suggestive of valvular disease so pay attention: is the murmur occurring during diastole or systole? is it soft, loud, shy, or offensive? how does the murmur rate on a Yelp scale from 1 to 5 stars, where 1 is “Eek, methinks not” or “Woohoo, as good as it gets!” The most common type of murmurs are audible ones, followed by ones seen on echocardiogram.[1]
