when percussing and auscultating, how do you analyze the sounds?
Compare bilaterally
equal duration of inspiration and expiration on breath sounds (2)
tracheal breath sounds
bronch-vesicular breath sounds
breath sounds loud in intensity (2)
tracheal and bronchial
relatively high-pitched breath sounds
tracheal
breath sounds located over the trachea and neck
tracheal
duration of expiration and inspiration is about equal, loud in intensity, relatively high-pitched, located over the trachea in the neck
tracheal breath sounds
duration of expiration is longer than inspiration, loud intensity, relatively high pitched, located over the manubrium
bronchial breath sounds
duration of expiration longer than inspiration
bronchial breath sounds
breath sounds located over the manubrium
bronchial breath sounds
breath sounds with moderate intensity
broncho-vesicular breath sounds
breath sounds with moderate pitch
broncho-vesicular breath sounds
breath sounds located in 1st and 2nd interspaces anteriorly and interscapular posteriorly
broncho-vesicular breath sounds
duration of inspiration and expiration about equal, moderate intensity, moderate pitch, located in 1st and 2nd interspaces anteriorly & interscapular posteriorly
broncho-vesicular breath sounds
duration of inspiration is longer than inspiration, soft intensity, relatively low pitch, located in most of both lung fields
vesicular breath sounds
duration of inspiration is longer than expiration
vesicular breath sounds
