Coming Soon!

Stay tuned! We will have this site up and running shortly with cardiac tips and tricks.

It is our hope that together we can create an online community to share tips, cases, or questions related to cardiac auscultation.

Don't forget to check out MurmurQuiz.org to learn and evaluate your auscultation skills.

Together we will revitalize cardiac auscultation!!
