You are incorrect - our patient's precordial movement at the apex is best described as non displaced and early systolic.


Your choice: Non displaced, non sustained, hyperdynamic

A non diplaced, non sustained and hyperdynamic apical impulse is typically felt when there is an increased stroke volume associated with an increased preload and an increased velocity of contraction due to reduced afterload. In the video, note the hyperdynamic apical impulse occurs with the carotid pulse.
