Pulsus Alternans
– Is an arterial pulse with alternating strong and weak beats. Ie: Left ventricular alternans occurs in
the setting of severe left ventricular dysfunction. This includes cardiomyopathy, aortic stenosis, and
coronary artery disease. Right ventricular alternans occurs as a result of right ventricular strain,
often precipitated by a pulmonary embolus or pulmonary hypertension.
Bisferiens Pulse
– Also known as biphasic pulse, is an aortic waveform with two peaks per cardiac cycle, a small one
followed by a strong and broad one. I.e Aortic Regugirtation
Pulsus Paradoxus
– Pulsus paradoxus is the term used to describe an exaggerated blood pressure variation with the
respiratory cycle.
Pulsus Tardus
– Pulsus tardus et parvus, also pulsus parvus et tardus, slow-rising pulse and anacrotic pulse, is weak
(parvus), and late (tardus) relative to its expected characteristics. It is caused by a stiffened aortic
valve that makes it progressively harder to open.
One explanation or normal splitting o S2 is as ollows. Expansion o the chest
during inspiration causes the intrathoracic pressure to become more
negative. The negative pressure transiently increases the capacitance (and
reduces the impedance) of the intrathoracic pulmonary vessels. As a result,
there is a temporary delay in the diastolic “back pressure” in the pulmonary
artery responsible for the closure of the pulmonic valve. Thus, P2 is delayed;
that is, it occurs later during inspiration than during expiration .
