The rhythm of heart sounds, three to each cycle, when someone is experiencing tachycardia.
Heart rhythm characterized by the presence of an extra sound on stetho-scopic examination; it may indicate a heart abnormality.
A cardiac irregularity characterized by an atypical rhythm where the doctor perceives three (occasionally four) audible sounds instead of the customary two. This distinctive pattern resembles the galloping rhythm reminiscent of a horse’s gait.
The rhythm, similar to the trotting of a horse, that is audible when the heart produces three sounds instead of the usual two. When this third sound occurs at the apex of the heart during diastole, it signifies stress on the right ventricle due to left ventricular failure. However, a third sound detected during the systolic phase of the heartbeat holds no significance.
