What is another word for accidental murmur?
Pronunciation: [ˌaksɪdˈɛntə͡l mˈɜːmə] (IPA) 
An accidental murmur, also referred to as adventitious murmur, is an idiomatic term used to describe an unexpected or unintentional sound, typically associated with an irregular heartbeat. This term is commonly employed in the medical field to classify abnormal heart sounds that differ from the regular lub-dub pattern. Synonyms for accidental murmur include incidental murmur, sporadic murmur, chance murmur, and irregular murmur. These terms highlight the unpredictable nature of this abnormality in heart sounds. It is important to distinguish accidental murmurs from pathological murmur, which are indicative of underlying heart problems. Accidental murmurs often arise due to temporary factors such as emotional stress, fever, or anemia, and usually resolve without significant medical intervention.
