benign flow murmur

English to German Medical Medical: Cardiology
Aus einem Befund: liege ich mit "Strömungsgeräusch" für "flow murmur" richtig und was ist mit "benign"?

Selected

funktionelles Herzgeräusch

oder "akzidentelles Herzgeräusch"

Sofern es nicht um eine Gefäßauskultation geht, würde ich nicht "Strömungsgeräusch" sagen, weil der Begriff eher im Zusammenhang mit den strukturellen Herzgeräuschen gebraucht wird.

Danke Harald!
neutral David Moore (X) : I'm surprised medics have agreed here; I'd need to have confirmation, but I'm pretty certain we ALL have this - unless we're six foot under...To me, this is a noise in connection with a heart defect of benign character - IOW not specifically harmful.

Thanks David. AFAIK, 'benign, innocent, functional, physiological' are all synonyms to characterize a murmur in connection with no heart defect at all.
