"Tips for CVS station"
PACES candidate surely fail the CVS station if one can't get the correct murmur. However, it's not difficult to pass it. I still remember one of my consultant told me that the diagnosis of CVS does not rely on auscultation but the peripheral signs! So, you should have a lists of differentials just before the auscultation.
For example, think of PDA and AR for collapsing pulse. Irregularly irregular pulse (AF) would make you think of MS or ASD. So, please pay attention to the precious peripheral signs before you use stethoscope to assist/support your diagnsosis.
