Overview

Physical Examination

Heart

Inspection

  • 'a' wave in the JVP

Palpation

  • Right ventricular heave.
  • Systolic thrill may be present.

Auscultation

  • Ejection click:
    • Earlier the click, the more severe the stenosis.
    • May be absent in Noonan's syndrome (Dysplastic valve).
    • Decreases on inspiration
