Heart Sounds Workshop

The Heart Sounds workshop is part of the autumn-quarter Basic Clinical Skills course at MEDEX. It provides students with the opportunity to learn about cardiac exams, and apply this knowledge to real patients with previously diagnosed heart murmurs. The hands-on experience allows students to interact with patients and faculty one-on-one. MEDEX Northwest works with community partners, like UW Neighborhood Clinics, to stage the clinical workshop for the purpose of training future physician assistants.
