S1_L2_CPR_PhysicalDx - 72-104 Flashcards
Palpation: a crackly or crinkly sensation, a gentle
and bubbly feeling
Crepitus
Palpation: palpable vibration of the chest wall that
results from speech or other verbalizations
Tactile Fremitus
Palpation: palpable, coarse, grating vibration
Pleural Friction Rub
Palpation: Indicates air in the subcutaneous tissue from a rupture somewhere in the respiratory system by infection from a gas-producing organism
Crepitus
Palpation: Pleural friction rub is usually on (inspiration/expiration)
inspiration
Palpation: Crepitus is localized not generalized (T/F)
F, both localized and generalized
Palpation: feel of leather rubbing on leather
Pleural Friction Rub
Palpation: best felt parasternally at the 2nd ICS at the level of the bifurcation of bronch
Tactile Fremitus
Palpation: Bubble wrap sound that could develop in LE
Crepitus
Palpation: 99, tres-tres, Mickey Mouse (resonant with R,M,T)
Tactile Fremitus
Palpation: Can be felt when doing thoracic expansion with a
vibrating sensation → (+) pleural inflammation; Same pathology or mechanism with auscultatory findings in friction rub
Pleural Friction Rub
Palpation: Crinkly sensation; May be d/t an infection from organism that produces
air; can also be from an injury such as trauma or poor intubation causing tracheal perforation
Crepitus
Palpation: in tactile fremitus, strart from (top/bottom) then sides
top
Palpation: where is tactile fremitus best felt
parasternally at the 2nd ICS at the level of
the bifurcation of bronchi
