Murmurs may be so loud as to be palpable as thrills, the most common examples being the apical diastolic thrill of mitral stenosis and the basal systolic thrill of aortic stenosis. Thrills are best appreciated when the patient leans forward with the breath held in expiration, with the exception of the thrill of mitral stenosis which is most easily felt when the patient turns on to the left side. 1, record 1, English, - apical%20diastolic%20thrill
