Shadow Health Respiratory Concept Lab
with complete solution
Detail normal air passage when a patient breathes. - ✔️✔️air rushes through nasal passages
and trachea, bronchi , & into lungs where it's absorbed by the alveoli
What happens during auscultation? - ✔️✔️Healthcare professional listen to the heart sounds
through a stethoscope
What are bronchial sounds and how are these sounds detected? - ✔️✔️Harsh, high-pitched,
& loud sound that can be heard
above the manubrium (over the trachea).
What are bronchovesicular sounds and how are these sounds detected? - ✔️✔️Medium in
loudness & pitch sounds that can be heard over the main bronchi
What are vesicular sounds and how are these sounds detected? - ✔️✔️The softest and lowest
in pitch sounds that are heard over the lower bronchi, bronchioles, and lobes
Lungs Lobes - ✔️✔️
Where are vesicular sounds normally heard? - ✔️✔️peripheral lung tissue
What is so important about increased breath sounds? - ✔️✔️It may detail that the location of
breath sounds is off. For instance, if bronchial or bronchovesicular sounds (i.e lounder and
harsher) are in peripheral lung tissue (where vesicular sounds usually are) this is due to
underlying lung tissues fill with liquid or solid material instead of air.
What are adventitious sounds? - ✔️✔️abnormal sounds present in addition to the normal
lungs sounds
