AB  - The  patient's  history  is  a  critical  feature  in  the  evaluation  of  suspected  or  overt  heart  disease.  It  includes  information  about  the  present  illness,  past  illnesses,  and  the  patient's  family.  From  this  information,  a  chronology  of  the  patient's  disease  process  should  be  constructed.  Determining  what  information  in  the  history  is  useful  requires  a  detailed  knowledge  of  the  pathophysiology  of  cardiac  disease.  The  effort  spent  on  listening  to  the  patient  is  time  well  invested  because  the  cause  of  cardiac  disease  is  often  discernible  from  the  history.
