Sound in HTML file

updated 13 December 2005

These particular heart sound files (many versions of which may be found on the Internet) were created by the Synapse Corporation.  The original website no longer exists.  However, the files seem to be availlable from other sites, e.g.http://www.medstudents.com.br/cardio/heartsounds/heartsou.htm


Heart sound files as links

These links were added using the standard Netscape Composer Link command
