Do you dread hearing a murmur on physical exam? Does auscultating an arrhythmia give you palpitations? If so, this webinar is for you.

Every day in practice we face the dilemma of case planning for the incidentally noted murmurs, funky rhythms and galloping cats that walk through the consult room door.

This webinar will help you to rationalise what you have heard and seen on examination, so that with the likely differentials in mind, you can make a reasonable plan for how to progress the investigation and management of the case.

So slow your racing pulse and relax – Those cardiac murmurs aren’t as bad as they seem!
