Heart Songs 5: Auscultation Meets Handheld Echo

Date of Release: 3/15/2019

Let Heart Songs 5 help you:

• Prepare for the cardiac exam of the future by learning the complementary role of handheld echo in the bedside detection of heart sounds. Heart Songs 5 includes basic, intermediate, expert and adult congenital murmurs, plus images of phonocardiograms, CT scans and videos of color Doppler echocardiograms. These visual enhancements will facilitate your understanding and mastery of many heart murmurs/sounds.
  

• Master cardiac auscultation by reviewing the auditory characteristics and handheld echo findings of each heart sound.

  Research reveals that cardiologists fail to identify more than half of basic murmurs and about 35 percent of advanced murmurs when challenged at a major medical meeting, but skills improved after a 90 minute Heart Songs training session.

  Heart Songs 5 provides you with everything you need to effortlessly improve your cardiac auscultation skills! Simply watch/listen to each video within Heart Songs 2 to 4 times to master each murmur/sound.

  Psychoacoustic research shows that intensive repetition (400 to 600 times) is key, producing a significant improvement in cardiac auscultation in a relatively short time. Once each new sound is mastered, it will be reinforced every time you hear it in a patient.

  Each Heart Songs video includes echo images that illustrate that murmur.

Target Audience:
The target audience includes any healthcare professional interested in improving his/her cardiac auscultation skills.

Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of Heart Songs 5, learners will be able to demonstrate:

• Improved recognition and differentiation of basic heart sounds including third, fourth sounds, summation gallops and pericardial rubs.
• Improved recognition and differentiation of essential diagnostic heart sounds/murmurs including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and mitral valve prolapse.
• Improved recognition and differentiation between expert heart murmurs including aortic/mitral stenosis and regurgitation.
• Improved recognition and differentiation of heart sounds associated with congenital disorders including atrial and ventricular septal defects.

Cardiac auscultation has traditionally been taught as if it were an intellectual skill, with a didactic lecture followed by a brief demonstration of heart sounds. This approach has yielded disappointing results, with most clinicians able to recognize only about 40% of abnormal heart sounds.

Heart Songs, on the other hand, is based on psychoacoustic research demonstrating that intensive repetition (400 to 600 times) is required for the human brain to master a new sound. This degree of repetition is necessary for the formation of an auditory template of each new sound. Once each new sound is mastered, it is reinforced each time you hear it in a patient.

By using this learning principle from psychoacoustic research, Heart Songs produces a significant improvement in cardiac auscultation in a relatively short time. Two controlled trials1,2 have shown that proficiency in cardiac auscultation routinely exceeds 80% using this approach.

Heart Songs 5 provides you with high-quality heart sounds that you can listen to at your convenience so you can improve your cardiac auscultation skills.
