Sent by Fernanda Golzarri, mnemonic to remember the murmurs associates with valvulopathies:

REMEMBER: hARD ASS MRS. MSDoctor

hARD - Aortic Regurgitation is DIASTOLIC

ASS - Aortic Stenosis is SYSTOLIC

MSD - Mitral Stenosis is DIASTOLIC

  1. red-in regugitation early diastolic
    ass-aortic stenosis-systolic murmur
    mrp-mitral regurgitation-pansystolic

    rembr that aortic = pulmo & mitral =tricuspid

    so in case of ass aortic stenosis = pulmonry stenosis= systolic murmr
