This CD-ROM teaches the most fundamental, and yet most difficult, clinical skill in medicine--listening to, eliciting, and interpreting heart sounds and murmurs--a cornerstone activity in physical diagnosis and the practice of medicine. Presents approximately 70 heart sounds, murmurs, and lung sounds with accompanying echocardiograms, phonograms, phonetics, and patient positioning information. Two modes--instructional and testing--will benefit the novice and expert alike.
From the Back Cover
Improve your clinical acumen as you develop the listening skills to diagnose heart sounds and murmurs with confidence using MASTERING AUSCULTATION: An Audio tour to Cardiac Diagnosis. Master Teacher, T. Anthony Don Michael, M.D. showcases his patented 'cardiophonetic' approach to recognize and recall 100 heart sounds and murmurs in this breakthrough, multimedia CD-ROM. You will hear actual heart sounds as they are listened to through the stethescope and reinforce your learning with a battery of clinical cases. Remarkably easy-to-use, MASTERING AUSCULTATION let's you review heart sounds and murmurs at your own pace in a tutorial mode, by clinical condition (heart failure, congenital heart disease, etc) or via clinical case studies that fully reinforce your diagnostic skills.
Hearing is believing! Match the actual heart sounds you hear at the bedside with those presented on MASTERING AUSCULTATION. Simply place your stethoscope on your laptop's speaker and listen to heart sounds without amplification or unnecessary embellishment - just like you find in the clinical experience.
Also see Don Michael's acclaimed AUSCULTATION OF THE HEART (Book and Disk). Use it tandem with this CD to speed your mastery of auscultation. 'The most extensive text currently available on cardiac auscultation...[Dr.Don Michael] has created an ingenious method of phonetically describing heart sounds and murmurs that is an advance over the usual...well worth having.' - JAMA review.
