Description:

Are You Getting The Most Out Of Your Stethoscope?

In a voluntary study of 1,100 cardiologists, participants were able to recognize fewer than half of basic murmurs and only two-thirds of advanced murmurs. How confident are you in your cardiac auscultation skills?

Heart Songs 4 provides you with everything you need to effortlessly improve your cardiac auscultation skills! Simply watch/listen to each high definition video within Heart Songs 2 to 4 times to master each murmur. The videos include descriptions of each murmur, images of phonocardiograms, CT scans and color Doppler echos, intermixed with 200 repetitions of each murmur. Interactive quizzes let you measure your baseline skill and your level of improvement. And best of all, once you’ve mastered a sound, it will be reinforced every time you hear it in a patient.

After only 90 minutes using Heart Songs,the study participants nearly doubled their score on the basic murmurs and saw a 30% score improvement for advanced murmurs. The stethoscope is as important today as it was 200 years ago. Do you know what yours is telling you?

With Heart Songs 4, you will.
