Cardiac Auscultation

An interactive tutorial on Heart Sounds

This easy-to-use, affordable simulation is designed to familiarize medical students, residents, and allied health students with the auscultatory part of the cardiac exam. It was developed by Anthony J. Frisby, PhD, and Adam L. Wilkes, MD, both of Thomas Jefferson University.
In the tutorial mode, you select one of the 18 cardiac abnormalities presented and your mouse acts as a stethoscope, enabling you to hear the heart sounds. You’ll also see a visual representation of the abnormality, a description of the clinical setting, associated findings, and common radiation of the abnormality.
In the self-test mode, you listen to the heart sounds, select the corresponding abnormality, and receive your answer.
With Cardiac Auscultation, students can spend as much timeas they need with the "patient", listening to heart sounds again and again until they are able to identify cardiac abnormalities readily.

Learning Arrhythmia Recognition CD-ROM
The Learning Arrhythmia Recognition Software is a CD-ROM program designed to acquaint medical and nursing students with basic arrhythmias

 

This program is available for any Windows platform. It contains 30 arrhythmias. Each arrhythmia can be played as a moving strip. The demonstration mode shows the arrhythmia moving on a standard ECG grid with the explanation of the arrhythmia shown below the strip. This provides basic instruction about the characteristics of each arrhythmia. The pacemaker site, rhythm, rate, P waves, P-R interval, QRS complex, clinical significance and treatment are all described.

The
comparison mode permits any two arrhythmias to be shown on the screen simultaneously. For example, if the user wishes to compare the difference between Second degree AV block, type I and type II, both arrhythmias can be seen on the screen simultaneously. The descriptions are still shown so that a complete explanation of each is available.

The
quiz mode gives the user a quiz with up to 10 multiple-choice answers. The quiz is a very nice learning tool. If the student quizzes himself or herself and an incorrect answer is selected, by a simple keystroke, the incorrect answer is compared with the correct one so the student can see the difference. The student enters his name. The date is automatically controlled by the computer. The student may quiz himself or herself on any portion of the arrhythmia teaching system that has been studied or the entire program if he or she chooses.

 

 A tutorial is provided so that each point in the ECG trace can be coordinated with the electrical pathways of the heart.

Coronary Artery Disease

This CD-ROM covers coronary artery disease with emphasis on cineangiography and valvular heart disease with emphasis on echocardiography.

This CD-ROM contains a complete description of one of the most common cardiovascular disorders in the US - Coronary Artery Disease.  There are numerous examples of cath lab views from actual patient showing narrowed and occluded coronary arteries.  There is a complete clinical discussion and rationale for the diagnosis.

The second part of this CD-ROM covers Valvular Heart Disease - mitral stenosis, mitral regurgitation, aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation.  The user can review the electrocardiogram, a series of echocardiograms, cath lab data and results, heart sounds, and chest X-Rays.  

The authors are Sherman M. Steinzeig, M.D., FACC, Marvin I. Dunn, M.D., FACC, David Wilson, M.D., FACC from the

Division of Cardiovascular Diseases, and Tseng Kuo Shiao, M.D. from the department of Information Technology at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kansas.

Learning Cardiac Auscultation – CD-ROM

The Learning Cardiac Auscultation program is a CD-ROM covering over 20 heart sounds and murmurs with variations on each.
The use of a stethoscope is basic to every physician, nurse and allied health professional. Learning heart sounds is a difficult and time consuming task. This CD-ROM simplifies the learning experience.  By following the sequence of the sounds on the menu, the student will be guided through a step-by-step learning process.

Many of the sounds have the ability to be displayed as mild, moderate and severe examples.
List of Heart Sounds 

Normal heart sounds                                            Hypertropic cardiomyopathy Physiological splitting of S2 with respiration  Mitral regurgitation
Paradoxical splitting of S2 with respiration      Mitral stenosis
Third heart sound                                                 Mitral stenosis & regurg.
Fourth heart sound                                              Mitral valve prolapse
Summation sound                                                Tricuspid regurgitation
Congestive heart failure                                      Atrial septal defect
Ejection sounds                                                   Ventricular septal defect
Atrial fibrillation                                                   Patent ductus arteriosus
Aortic regurgitation                                             Pulmonary hypertension
Valvular aortic stenosis                                       Congenital aortic stenosis
Aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation           Innocent systolic murmurs
 
Features:
  • All heart sound programs have a moving Phonocardiogram (PCG) and Electrocardiogram (ECG) trace to show the location of the sound(s) in the cardiac cycle
  • Sound components are identified with labels
  • Labels can be turned ON or OFF
  • Amplitude of individual sound component(s) is adjustable to create faint or loud events
  • Any two heart sound programs are easily compared with a mouse click
  • Text explains each heart sound program with emphasis on Physical Diagnosis
  • Complete Tutorial shows first-time users how to use the heart sound programs
  • A step-by-step learning process - following the List of Heart Sounds takes the student through the normal and abnormal heart sounds found in today's clinical practice

Learning Electrocardiography CD-ROM

A detailed interpretation is presented which includes the criteria and the rationale for the diagnosis.

This CD-ROM contains over 118 clinical EKGs in 9 clinical categories. The tracings are standard 12 lead versions with zoom enlargements of critical areas. In some cases, orthogonal XYZ leads are also included. A detailed interpretation is presented which includes the criteria and the rationale for the diagnosis.

This new version contains an EKG tutorial, a Student Assessment, a section on vectrocardiography and the ability to ZOOM or expand any lead in any EKG for greater detail. This new upgrade is a significant improvement.

The tracings are hyperlinked with 10 discussion topics which include: the specialized conduction system, A-V block, bundle branch block, chamber enlargement, loop rotation, the EKG in CVA, electrolytes, myocardial infraction, tachycardia, and ventricular pre-excitation. This CD-ROM will operate on Windows 3.1, Windows 95/98 or Windows NT.

The authors are Sherman M. Steinzeig, M.D., FACC, Marvin I. Dunn, M.D., FACC, David Wilson, M.D., FACC from the Division of Cardiovascular Diseases, and Tseng Kuo Shiao, M.D. from the department of Information Technology at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kansas.
