Specializes in Pediatric Allergy and Asthma

Mgt: Murmurs are caused by turbulent flow of the circulation through the heart. The echo verified that the structure of the heart is normal and may also provide information about any abnormal pressures in the heart and vessels. I would suggest a follow up appt in a few months. If you have any symptoms, please see the ED promptly.
