lung exam - Karen
Posted: Apr 02, 2011
H&P, doctor sounds like he is saying Lungs: Increased TRACHEAL sounds both bases?
Probably correct - See message
[ In Reply To ..]If what you are hearing is very clear, then that is probably exactly what the dictator is saying.
BREATH SOUNDS
Breath sounds can be divided and subdivided into the following categories:
Normal | Abnormal | Adventitious |
tracheal | absent/decreased | crackles (rales) |
vesicular | bronchial | wheeze |
bronchial |
| rhonchi |
bronchovesicular | stridor | |
| pleural rub | |
mediastinal crunch (Hamman's sign) |
