Cardiovascular symptoms and signs in evaluating cardiac murmurs in children

Background: The aim of the present study was to determine the usefulness of cardiovascular symptoms and signs in the recognition of significant congenital heart lesions that required surgical or catheter interventions in different pediatric age groups.
