You are incorrect - the best description of the acoustic events at the upper left sternal edge in our patient is a short, mid systolic murmur and a second sound that is split in inspiration and single in expiration.


Your choice: Long, mid systolic, S2 single in inspiration, split in expiration

This is a graphic example of a long, mid systolic murmur, with a second sound that is single in inspiration and split in expiration, that is, the second sound splits paradoxically.
