PT Tests And Measures Flashcards
ABI indicating rigid arteries and the need for an ultrasound test to check for peripheral artery disease
Greater to or equal 1.30
ABI 0.8-0.99
Mild blockage and beginnings of peripheral artery disease
Normal ABI with no blockage
1- 1.3
Moderate blockage may be associated with intermittent claudication during exercise
0.4 - 0.79
During BP measurement, a cuff that is two small may result in?
A false high reading
What valve 2nd intercostal space at the r sternal border
Aortic area
What valve 2nd intercostal space at the l sternal border
Pulmonic area
What valve at 4th intercostal space at the l sternal border
Tricuspid area
What valve at 5th intercostal space medial to l midclavicular line
Mitral area
Closure of the tricuspid and mitral valve sound
S1
S2 ?
Closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves at the onset of ventricular diastole
Vibrations of the distended ventricle walls due to passive flow of blood from the atria during the rapid filling phase of diastole. May be associated with heart failure.
S3
Pathological sound of vibration of the ventricular wall with ventricular filling and atrial contraction. May be associated with hypertension, stenosis, hypertensive heart disease or myocardial infarction; often called and atrial gallop
S4
What lung sound typically represents the movement of fluid or secretions during inspiration or occurs from the sudden opening of closed airways?
Crackles
What lung sound is dry and crackling heard during both inspiration and expiration, occurs when inflamed visceral of parietal for Rob together?
Pleural friction rub
What lung sound is described as having a snoring or gurgling quality and is caused by air passing through an airway which is obstructed by inflammatory secretions or liquids, bronchial spasm or neoplasms ?
Rhonchi
What lung sound is continuous musical or whistling sound composed of a variety of pitches. It arises from turbulent air flow of the vibrations of the walls of small airways due to narrowing by bronchospasm, edema, collapse, secretions, neoplasm or foreign bodies.
Wheezing
What sounds are typically heard over distal airways in healthy lung tissue?
Vesicular breath sounds
What sounds are typically heard over the trachea and are loud and tubular?
Bronchial
What lung sounds indicates severe congestion, emphysema or hypoventilation?
Deceased or diminished sounds
What sounds may indicate pneumothorax or lung collapse?
Absent breath sounds
Increased loudness and this thankfulness of breath sounds indicate?
Consolidation atelectasis or fibrosis Alderwood improve transmission of the vibrations through through the lung tissue
A form of bronchophony in which the spoken long E sound changes to a long nasal sounding A
Egophony
Recognition of whispered words 123
Whispered pectoriloquy
