Hey everyone,

Can someone recommend a good website to learn the heart sounds? I can't seem to get them right on the UWorld questions.

Any advice would be great.

Thanks,

Nick

FYI, half the battle is narrowing down the possibilities by paying attention to where the were auscultating.
 
It really helps to just tap it out on the table. For step 1 they're mostly just interested in you figuring out if it's a systolic or diastolic murmur. The rest you can figure out from the question stem (ex. fixed splitting = ASD) and location of auscultation (left sided v r sided murmur).
