bruit. [broÌoÌâ²Ä]. Etymology: Fr, noise. an abnormal blowing or swishing sound or murmur heard while auscultating a carotid artery, the aorta, an organ, or a gland, such as the liver or thyroid, and resulting from blood flowing through a narrow or partially occluded artery.
A bruit is caused by turbulent blood flow in an artery which supplies blood to the brain. Increased stenosis of a carotid artery results in increased duration, intensity, and pitch of the bruit. A carotid bruit and a basal heart murmur are easily confused.
