Murmur that is loudest on inspiration = Right-sided valvular defect (tricuspid or pulmonic) โ> Location of murmur = Tricuspid valve โ> Holosystolic tricuspid valve murmur = Tricuspid regurgitation
Large wave occurring with S2 caused by blood aberrantly moving from RV to RA and up into SVC during systole
Eventually leads to RV hypertrophy due to increased preload (lifting systolic murmur of the sternum) and eventually right heart failure (congestive hepatomegaly, lower extremity edema, etc.)
