Clear heart sounds are the normal sounds that you hear on auscultation.

Conditions that may cause muffled heart sounds can be heart related or not. Obesity, for example, causes muffled heart sounds.

Other conditions include pericarditis (is causes fluid accumulation in the pericardium and muffled sounds as if listening through a pillow), lung disease (same type of cushioning). Weakened heart sounds are caused by heart pathology (MI, valvular stenosis, etc.).

In this case, the heart sounds are loud and clear, which is normal.

Your context, however, should give you some indication of the sounds. If the patient has a severe hypertension, then you may be able to use the term "loud heart sounds," which is an abnormality of an overworking heart.

Although it should read "усиленные/громкие тоны сердца." Use loud only if you have the information of an underlying condition.

Asker: Я это смотрел, однако это относится к дыханию, но не к сердечным тонам. Я не смог найти в Google ни одного сочетания по словам "sonorous heart sounds"

the heart has a regular rate and rhythm


Explanation:
This is the way an American physician (I checked) would put it. Usually, the doctor simply notes, heart: RRR, which stands for regular rate and rhythms.
ccccccc
Cardiovascular examination
heart rate and rhythm: "regular rate and rhythm" or "RRR" heart sounds:

agree  mrrafe: sourcing seems authentic
2 hrs
  -> Thank you, mrrafe. I consulted a physician.
disagree  Natalie: При регулярной частоте и ритме (которые не обязательно определяют выслушиванием) возможны различные тоны и шумы, так что это не о том.||These are the typical observations but of something different.
7 hrs
  -> These are the typical observations that a physician enters in a writeup of a cardiovascular examination for a properly functioning heart.
neutral  Sofia Gutkin: Frank, I don't think you can equate 'rate and rhythm' with 'heart sounds' just because your physician friend thinks so.
1 day 4 hrs
  -> Thank you, Sofia. The contention is that a US physician would NOT use another description.
disagree  5555555 (X): Frank, you don't need to auscultate the heart to count the heart rate. It's done by feeling the pulse. Rhythm means the presence of gallops, regularity of the heartbeat, those sorts of things. In this case we are talking about the quality of the sound.
1 day 19 hrs
  -> An American doctor would rather concentrate on what is wrong. When all is well, the American doctor emphasizes the rhythm, etc. My second source advises to treat Тоны сердца "звучные" figuratively: heart sounds strong, etc.

normal intensity of the heart sounds


Explanation:
Нормальные сердечные тоны при аускультации имеют такие характеристики:
Чистые - clear, pure.
Ритмичные - rhitmic.
Звучность - (intensity) на английском чаще всего пишут только нарушение какого-то из них:
soft - глухие, loud - громкие.
Редко, но встречается "normal intensity of the heart sound(s)". Думаю, это наиболее подходящий вариант.
Можно и проще - "normal heart sounds".
