To auscultate for a ventricular septal defect (VSD), place the stethoscope over the left sternal border, specifically in the third or fourth intercostal space. This area is where the characteristic holosystolic (or pansystolic) murmur associated with VSD is best heard. The murmur results from turbulent blood flow as blood shunts from the left ventricle to the right ventricle through the defect. Additionally, you may also hear a diastolic murmur if there is significant left-to-right shunting.
If you were going to do so, it would just be the standard heart rate and breathing.
Ventricular fibrillation, since this pumps blood to the rest of the body.
No, alpha blockers would not alleviate ventricular tachycardia. However, it can be used in combination with other treatments to help in the alleviation of such.
That's not very likely. Roman soldiers were trained to be loyal to the end. They would rather die nobly than defect. There would be some who would defect, though, since there are always exceptions to every rule.
A group of premature ventricular contractions in which the QRS configuration is always the same are referred to as monomorphic premature ventricular contractions.
The medial septal nuclei are located in the anteroventral cerebrum. They have reciprocal connections to other parts of the limbic system; the hippocampus, amygdala, hypothalamus, cingulate gyrus, and thalamus. They are also connected to the midbrain. What we know most about the medial septal nuclei is that they play an important role in reward and reinforcement. So, if the medial septal nuclei where stimulated, the brain would perceive a reward, a pleasurable sensation.

Yes. In what's called an Atrial Septal Defect, a clot, such as a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can travel up the inferior vena cava from the legs, into the right atrium, get shunted through the hole into the left atrium, into the left ventricle and out into circulation where it would travel up the carotids into the brain causing stroke.
Sterility means that they cannot reproduce, which would prevent the genetic defect from being passed on to future generations.
I think it would be a point defect because a vacancy in the lattice structure would allow another atom to take the place of the vacancy.
The two most common heart rhythms that require CPR is ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation. Ventricular tachycardia is an extremely rapid cardiac rhythm and ventricular fibrillation is an abnormal cardiac rhythm. For an adult, if the person is unconscious and not breathing, CPR is required. There are numerous reasons an adult would be unconscious and not breathing; all require CPR.
