Explanation:
Heaves. A parasternal heave is a precordial impulse that can be palpated. Place the heel of your hand parallel to the left sternal edge (fingers vertical) to palpate for heaves. If heaves are present you should feel the heel of your hand being lifted with each systole

A central precordial heave is a palpable lifting sensation under the sternum and anterior chest wall to the left of the sternum; it suggests severe right ventricular hypertrophy. Occasionally, in congenital disorders that cause severe RV hypertrophy, the precordium visibly bulges asymmetrically to the left of the sternum.

Por ejemplo:
El signo de Dressler positivo o la palpación de un latido sagital se refieren a la sensación física de intensa sobreelevación sistólica palpable bajo el esternón y sobre el reborde esternal izquierdo que sugiere una grave hipertrofia ventricular derecha. El frémito...

Otra opción;
La palpación de un impulso o "elevación" paraesternal izquierdo (signo de Dressler; latido sagital) se refiere a la sensación física de elevación cíclica/sistólica palpable bajo el esternón y sobre el reborde esternal izquierdo que sugiere una grave hipertrofia ventricular derecha. Un frémito...



El signo de Dressler es la percepción de una sobreelevación sistólica intensa y extensa, es la expresión palpatoria del latido sagital positivo

[Ojo con "signo de Dressler; distinto del Dressler's sign (dullnes to percussion of the lower one half of the sternum)]

La percepción por el tacto de una sobreelevación sistólica intensa y extensa en el tercer y cuarto espacio paraesternal izquierdo se denomina signo de Dressler. Es la expresión palpatoria del latido sagital. Se observa en el agrandamiento del ventrículo derecho.

se palpa un impulso paraesternal por crecimiento del ventrículo derecho
(...)
El impulso aumentado del ventrículo derecho puede ser palpable en el reborde esternal izquierdo si la hipertensión pulmonar está presente
(...)
Si existe hipertensión pulmonar se palpa el latido del ventrículo derecho en el borde esternal izquierdo

Se puede palpar un latido sagital expresión del agrandamiento del ventrículo derecho

What is the difference between thrill and parasternal heave?
A thrill feels like a vibration or buzzing underneath your hand. Place your hand at the left sternal edge. A parasternal heave is a sign of right ventricular enlargement and feels like a "lifting feeling" under your hand.

so
thrill = vibración
heave = elevación

Thrills: These are vibratory sensations felt on the skin overlying the heart, which indicates turbulence; this can be felt in loud murmurs and are necessary for murmur grading.

I have found few convincing hits for "elevación" = "heave"

however I have found "desplazamiento"

I think you need to carrry on researching.
