Q

Normal & abnormal result of spinous process inspection

A

appear stright; deviation indicate scoliosis, may lead to muscle & lung function loss

17
Q

Normal & abnormal result of anterposterior: transverse ratio inspection

A

1:2; 1:1, barrel chest, hyperinflation

18
Q

3 posterior & anterior palpation

A
  1. chest expansion
  2. crepitus
  3. temperature, sensation, tenderness
19
Q

Chest expansion palpation normal result

A

examiner’s hand move symmetrically 5-10cm apart

20
Q

chest expansion palpation abnormal result

A

decreased expansion: may due to COPD
unequal chest expansion: may indicate complication on the affected side

21
Q

Crepitus palpation normal result

A

no palpable crepitus

22
Q

Crepitus palpation abnormal result

A

may indicate air leaks into subcutaneous layer

23
Q

Tenderness, tempeature, sensation palpation normal result

A

no tenderness, no unsual sensation
warm & equl temperature bilaterallly

24
Q

tenderness, temperature, sensation palpation abnormal result

A

tenderness/ heating may indicate injuries: fractured ribs, connective tissue inflammation, inflamed pleurae, local skin infection

25
Q

Posterior percussion normal result

A

flat over scapula & resonance over lung tissue

26
Q

Posterior percussion abnormal result

A

dullness: indicte solid/ fluid (pneumonia)
Hyperesonance: indicate air trapping (pneumonthorax)

27
Q

Posterior & anterior ausculatation normal result

A

bilaterally equal ai-entry sound: vesicular sound & bronchovesicular sound

28
Q

Posterior & anterior ausculatation abnormal result

A

wheeze: narrowed airway
Crackles: fluid accumulation
Diminished: little air moving in or out

29
Q

4 anterior inspection

A
  1. trachea & sternum position
  2. sternum retraction
  3. repiratory rate
  4. intercostal muscle retraction/ bulging
30
Q

trachea & sternum posiiton inspection normal result

A

midsternal/ midline

31
Q

trachea & sternum posiiton inspection abnormal result

A

deviation: may indicate lung complication
sunken/ prostrution of sternum: lung expansion restriction & decrease lung capacity

32
Q

Respiratory rate inspection normal result

A

10-18 bpm

33
Q

Respiratory rate inspection abnormal result

A

hyperventilation, tahcypnea, bradypnea
laboured & noisy breathing: asthma/ chronic bronchitis

34
Q

Sternum retraction inspection normal result

A

no retraction

35
Q

Sternum retraction inspection abnormal result

A

sternum pulling inward indicate respiratory distress

36
Q

intercostal musle retraction/ bulging abnormal result

A

retraction: increased inspiratory effort due o airway obstruction
bulging: ai trapping

36
Q

intercostal muscle retraction/ bulging inspection normal result

A

no retraction/ bulging

37
Q

Anterior percussion normal result

A

tympany: stomach
dullness: liver, heat, breast
resonance: lung
flatness: bone

38
Q

Anterior percussion abnormal result

A

dullness: tumor, solid inside
hyperresonance: air trapped
