The nurse is auscultating for extraneous heart sounds. Some of the defects that accurate auscultation the nurse can detect are Mitral Regurgitation and Pericardial Rub.

Answer -  Mitral Regurgitation and Pericardial Rub.

The third heart sound is S3 or ventricular gallop, It starts at early diastole.

The fourth heart sound is S4 or Arterial gallop, it starts just before S1.
