I wish to learn about heart sounds. I am aware of 4. S-1, 2,3, and 4. Now, correct me if I'm wrong but S-1 and S-2 are the Atrio-ventricular valves and semi-lunar valves opening and closing. If you could specify which is which on this too, that would be gnarly. And, of course, what are S-3 and S-4? Or if you so wish, you could just give me a complete run down of the sounds in your own way. The only reason I am asking this on-line instead of looking in my textbooks is: I have searched relentlessly for it and can't find it. So it would be much appreciated, thank you.
