+===Heart===
+Probable physical exam findings on auscultation include:
+* Decreased intensity of [[first heart sound]]
+* Soft blowing [[diastolic murmur]] best heard at the [[cardiac apex]]
+The duration of this murmur may be reduced after administration of [[atropine]] which shortens the [[PR interval]].
