Table 2.

The patients' diagnoses and findings on auscultation. shows the patients relevant cardiac diagnoses, and the findings on auscultation as reported by two cardiologists.

Patient nr 1	Diagnoses	Findings*
Day 1: Patient no 1 (1)	Mitral valve insufficiency, possible low grade aortic sclerosis	Holosystolic, rough high frequency, grade 3/6, max intensity in the fourth left intercostal space in the medioclavicular line with radiation to the left axilla. 2nd heart sound (S2) preserved, no constant splitting of S2. S3 not present.
Patient no 2 (2)	Aortic stenosis	Holosystolic rough murmur grade 4/6, loudest at the apex. Radiation to the left axilla and the carotid arteries. S2 weakened.
Patient no 3 (3)	Control patient without cardiac murmurs	-
Patient no 4 (4)	Aortic insufficiency	High frequency diastolic murmur distinct at the apex.
Day 2: Patient no 1 (1)	Same as day 1	Same as day 1.
Patient no 2 (5)	Control without murmur	-
Patient no 3 (6)	VSD	Holosystolic ejection sound grade 3/6, loudest at the apex. No radiation. S3 present.
Patient no 4 (7)	Mitral valve insufficiency and aortic sclerosis	Holosystolic ejection sound grade 4/6. loudest at the apex, radiation to the left axilla and the carotid artery. S3 absent.
Day 3: Patient nr 1 (8)	St. Jude prosthetic valve in mitral position, paravalvular leakage	Holosystolic rough murmur grade 2, loudest in the left axilla.
Patient nr 2 (9)	Control without murmurs	-
Patient no 3 (10)	Aortic stenosis	Crescendo/decrescendo quincking systolic murmur grade 3/6, loudest parasternally at the right second intercostal space. Radiation to the left axilla and to the carotid arteries.
