Respiratory Concept Lab- Shadow Health Answered Correctly!! You can hear bronchial sounds above the manubrium, over the trachea. Bronchial Sounds are: Bronchiovesicular sounds are heard over the main bronchi. These sounds are: vesicular sounds are over the lower bronchi, the bronchioles, and the lobes. The left lung has two lobes. The right lung has three lobes. 3 lobes: Vesicular Right Superior, Vesicular Right Middle,Vesicular Right Inferior. 2 lobes: Vesicular Left Superior & Vesicular Left Inferior Diminished or absent breath sounds, increased breath sounds, & adventitious sounds. Normal lungs sounds are usually easy to hear with a stethoscope. Occasionally you will hear sounds that are decreased in intensity, or even absent. Decreased breaths sounds occur in airway disease or obstruction, diaphragm paralysis, or impairment of sound transmission through the chest wall. Worsening symptoms may lead to absent breath sounds. Absent lung sounds usually indicate that no air is moving in the lung tissue. A common abnormal finding is hearing bronchial or bronchiovesicular sounds, which are louder and harsher, in peripheral lung tissue where vesicular sounds are normally heard. This occurs when underlying lung tissue is filled with liquid or solid material, rather than air. When you auscultate, you might hear abnormal sounds in addition to the normal lung sounds. These additional abnormal sounds are called adventitious sounds. High-pitched crackling sounds that occur when inhaled air meets deflated alveoli, causing them to pop open. Short popping sounds, high-pitched, Location: usually bases of lower lobes.Sound like the noise created by rolling a strand of hair between your thumb and index finger. (likely Pneumonia) loud, low-pitched bubbling sounds that are caused when air meets secretions in the large airways. Short crackling sounds, low-pitched, Location: trachea and large bronchi. Sounds like separating a Velcro fastener. Continuous, low-pitched snoring sounds caused by airway obstruction from thick secretions, muscular constriction, or masses. Long snoring sounds, low-pitched, Location: Bronchi. Sounds likes snoring or moaning.
