Cardiac auscultation poorly predicts the presence of valvular heart disease in asymptomatic primary care patients.

TL;DR: Cardiac auscultation has limited accuracy for the detection of VHD in asymptomatic patients and is a poor diagnostic screening tool in primary care, particularly for overweight subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Community prevalence, mechanisms and outcome of mitral or tricuspid regurgitation.
Thomas J. Cahill,Anthony Prothero,Jo Wilson,Andrew Kennedy,Jacob Brubert,Megan Masters,James D. Newton,Sam Dawkins,Maurice Enriquez-Sarano,Bernard Prendergast,Saul G. Myerson +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the community prevalence of moderate or greater mitral or tricuspid regurgitation (MR/TR), and compare subjects identified by population screening with those with known valvular heart disease (VHD), to understand the mechanisms of MR/TR and to assess the rate of valve intervention and long-term outcome.

136 Gp auscultation for diagnosing valvular heart disease
Saul G. Myerson,Bernard Prendergast,Syed Km Gardezi,Anthony Prothero,Andrew Kennedy,Joanna Wilson +5 more
TL;DR: GP auscultation has only moderate accuracy for diagnosing valvular heart disease in an unselected population, and the presence of an isolated murmur would not be a reliable indicator of valve disease.
