Points of auscultation

Any image of a female getting her Heart listened to at the Mitral position has really been getting me going lately! I think that it is easier to hear the valve open and close over the Tricuspid ...and I love the sound of all the valves, but for some reason the Mitral is really getting me going!

When listened I love the steth placed on mitral, when I'm the listener I usually prefer tricuspid.

When I see pictures again I like to see the steth on mitral.

I enjoy very much the stethoscope to my sides of thorax, when i lie to the examination bed!! anyone else?

and also when the stethoscope is near to my nipples!

I LOVE having my mitral listened to, because it doesn't happen very often!

I love when i am sitting on the exam table and my doctor is behind of me and auscultates the sides of my thorax!

also when she is front of me and does the same!

i remember once a time, she was behind of me and she was touching with her left hand my left side of thorax. She was holding the stethoscope with the other hand, having auscultation of my right side of thorax!

All points are equally great for me. The tricuspid is usually the best spot as far as sound goes on the females I have used a Stethoscope on but they all are great! The sound is usually better with the diaphragm too but the sight of the bell over the Heart, especially the cone shaped kind is really a great visual!

Mitral is by far my favorite spot to have a scope placed and also where my heart is loudest and most visible.

Tricuspid and mitral are my favorites, but I also like to feel the PMI with my hand granted that does not involve a stethoscope lol

I like hearing full blown aortic regurg with the concomitant water hammer pulse. Not a good thing to wish on a patient though. It's surgery time.

All good points,regardless of location,for me the process is important

MITRAL!MITRAL!MITRAL!!

MITRAL!MITRAL!MITRAL!!

You just want them to hold your tits when they do that! 😁 😁 😁

No! Thats where I love to listen to others ,let them hold or let me hold it 😁

You know me so well don't you sue 😁

Either way, I knew it was the breast manipulation that was the good part!

😁 😁 😁 boobies are cute okay 😁

I like when the doctor listens to my pulmonic valve coz that's the special one..

Mitral for sure. My heart pounds loudest there.

Just gets excited being listen to any spot because it doesn't happen enough

These are the 5 points I generally auscultate.

My preference is Erb.

These are my standard locations, too, that's why I love your videos so much.

However, for a full exam, I will auscultate my patient in various positions, including sitting up, supine, on her left side, and standing. In the supine position, and especially if I have detected an apical murmur, I will listen along her left side beyond the apex, assessing how far the murmur radiates. Sometimes I have to get quite close to her armpit.

And a good lung exam is also always in order.

But your 5 points are beautiful - they are the quintessence.

Keep it up. By the way, one thing that's missing from your brilliant videos is some dialogue between the doctor and the patient - you know, the consultation part, where she gets to tell him about her symptoms. He asks more questions, she answers, and then there comes that magical moment when he says "Alright, fine... Let's get you over to the examination bed and take a look at you. Undress from the waist up, please."

In a play exam, anywhere and everywhere.

I do ascultate my Patients front all over usually, Heart, Lunghs, Abdomen, Groins for Inguinal pulse

When I listen to a patient I'd have to say I enjoy listening to his pulmonic and mitral valves, tricuspid also :-) And of course I have to give my patient a thorough lung auscultation and take a listen to his carotids as well. Here is my preferred order for cardiac auscultation points...aortic, pulmonic, erbs, tricuspid, mitral, and the epigastrium. Listening first with diaphragm of the stethoscope then switching over to the bell. Now when I am the patient I love to have my pulmonic and mitral valves auscultated :-)

Would love to experience your bedside manner JJmich2302 thats for sure .

Its hard to choose between all of them but i would preffer to stop on pulmonary longest

Most of all I like to listen to the mitral valve of the heart

Does anyone listen to the abdomen while a patient is retaining an enema?

I love listening to my stomach as sometimes it’s like a volcano as it rumbles, but it’s my heart is the best place because I have what they say is a left ventricular hypertrophy (athletic Heart)

@Martin59 I love both of those also, listening to the gurgling sounds coming out of my tummy and also the boom boom sounds of my heart, especially when I listen after a good workout session.

I am a huge fan of almost all auscultation, but my favorite is when they listen to my lower abdomen and bowels. Even better if I am undressed completely under the gown and listened to at the top of my pubic area. And bonus points for use of the bell and diaphragm both.

My favorite fantasy of performing it is examining a female patient in just panties, laid down with arms behind head. I'd listen from neck to the top of the mound area just to be sure I didn't miss anything ?
