Question

A loud pansystolic murmur that radiates to the axilla is most likely a result of a. aortic stenosis. b. mitral regurgitation. c. aortic regurgitation. d. mitral stenosis.

Answer 1

b. mitral regurgitation

Step-by-step explanation:

Mitral Regurgitation

It is the condition of the leakage of blood backward via the mitral valve every time the left ventricle contracts .

Due to the leakage in the mitral valve , the blood flows in two ways , in the process of contraction .

And some of the blood flows in its normal order , i.e. , from the ventricle via the aortic valve , but some blood flows back into the atrium .

And due to this leakage , the blood pressure increases .
