Hadden ductus arteritis or PDA produces a continuous machinery-like murmur that's best heard at the left upper chest near the second intercostal space. It occurs because blood flows from the highpressure aorta into the lower pressure pulmonary artery throughout systole and diastole. This murmur is often accompanied by abounding pulse and wide pulse pressure. Recognizing the classic continuous murmur of PDA is key to early diagnosis and preventing complications like heart failure or pulmonary hypertension.
