Overview

Continuous murmurs begin in systole and continue into diastole through the second heart sound. Most common causes of continuous murmurs are patent ductus arteriosus, arteriovenous fistula and arterial stenosis.

Causes

Life Threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
