Points of auscultation

Femoral artery all the way

For me its the tricuspid valve. Best position to steth for me

Pulmonic and apex are my favorite!

Apex and mitral, and stomach, too!

I don´t have a favourite Point, I just love when the doc places her steth on my chest and on my back. It´s an amazing feeling.

Tricuspid or Erb's with the diaphragm is usually the loudest or easiest to hear but watching the mitral area especially with the bell is hot.

Pulmonic valve

aortic valve

triscupid valve

mitral valve

in that order

can be fun no usual spots like

femoral pulse

base of neck

stomach

in the back

and so on

A cold steth just above my navel, Dr. moving it downward all over my lower abdomen

while he examines my balls with spread legs.

I love any spot as long as the steth is cold

Anywhere where i can see stethoscope 😉

I like my left breast lifted and drs hand on the boob.

Apex probably..

Pulmonic and mitral

Where to place your stethoscope:

Auscultation should proceed in a logical manner over 4 general areas on the anterior chest, beginning with the patient in the supine position.

The 4 percordial areas are examined with diaphragm, including:

Aortic region (between the 2nd and 3rd intercostal spaces at the right sternal border) (RUSB – right upper sternal border).

Pulmonic region (between the 2nd and 3rd intercostal spaces at the left sternal border) (LUSB – left upper sternal border).

Tricuspid region (between the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th intercostal spaces at the left sternal border) (LLSB – left lower sternal border).

Mitral region (near the apex of the heard between the 5th and 6th intercostal spaces in the mid-clavicular line) (apex of the heart).

After this initial examination in the supine positions, several additional maneuvers should be accomplished in the thorough cardiac exam, as follows:

Instruct the patient to turn onto their left side (left decubitus position) and listen with the bell of the stethoscope at the apex for mitral stenosis (low pitched diastolic murmur).

Instruct the patient to sit upright and re-examine the 4 percordial regions, again with the diaphragm of the stethoscope.

Instruct the patient to lean forward, exhale, and hold their breath. Listen with the diaphragm between the second and third intercostal spaces at the right sternal (aortic) and left sternal (pulmonic) areas for aortic regurgitation.

Triscupid and mitral region are definitely my favourites.I have always enjoyed doctors pushing the head of the stethoscope into my left breast or next too my nipple. To me this isone of themost erotic scenarios possible. Pity it never lasts too long for me.

All heart valve auscultation point, and carotids+femoral, when beeing auscultated I like the steth on my mitral, when I'm the doctor I like to explore the points and my fav is where I can hear her pounding heart the best and loudest.

Definitely femoral artery. So nice to feel something that close - especially if it's cold! I've been lucky enough to experience this a few times.

It's strange: I have never been listened the femoral artery and neither heard of someone being listened there....

I don't understand if it is quite unnecessary or doctors don't perform deep examinations...

I've had it a few times because I had an injury to my leg. The doctor did it to make sure the pulse was the same at the top as in my foot. So they'd probably only be likely to do it if you had a history of circulation problems near there.

I have never had it done, but auscultation of the femoral artery would be the best. I have had one doctor palpate my femoral artery and it sent a chill through my entire body. What was so great about this was that he felt over the artery with my briefs still up and did it by just reaching into the leg opening. What I got out of it was not only the sensation of being touched in the groin so close to my penis and scrotum but also the anxiety that went along with the uncertainty of where this exam was going to lead. Was he going to suddenly expose my genitalia? This part of the exam was performed between the abdominal and genital exams, so the care he took not to expose or touch my genitalia was kind of unnecessary since he was going to be looking at my penis and scrotum in less than a minute. I can just imagine the sensation of feeling a cold stethoscope in my groin so close to the genitals.

Pulmonic, MItral, and all the back for pulmonic auscultation.

I totally agree with what you said exam doc! Any contact around my femoral artery is absolutely fantastic, simply because it's oh so close to my genitals, but not quite there. It heightens the anxiety level, knowing that the examiner is checking me in that area. I've had palpation and also had doctors listen with a steth in that area.

I'm a fan of mitral as well, it's the loudest to me and tells a good story.

Meeting a friend from this site tonight, she knows to expect the most thorough bare chest stethoscope exam she has ever had. Planning to listen with both bell and diaphragm at all auscultation points. All of the women I have stethed have had small to average size breasts. This will be my first time to steth a woman with, shall we say, an ample bosom, so I will have to lift her breast to palpate her PMI and listen at her apex.

Apex is the best!

Tricuspid is my favourite 😃

Apex and mitral are my fav to be stethed

Mitral

Erbs point

Tricuspid

Aortic

Pulmonic

And definitely left breast area 😃

Probably apex

Mitral for sure!
