1. A physical therapist completes a respiratory assess- 1) Pleural ettusio
ment on a patient in an acute care
hospital. The examination reveals decreased
breath sounds and decreased fremitus. This
finding is MOST indicative of:
1)pleural effusion
2)pulmonary edema
3)consolidation
4)atelectasis
2. Decreased breath sounds and decreased Pleural extrusion or
fremitus are most likely caused by? pneu- mothorax
3. Decreased breath sounds and increased Pulmonary edema,
fremitus are often associated with? consoli- dation, and
atelectasis
4. What is pleural effusion? An accumulation of fluid
be- tween the layers of the
mem- brane that lines the
lungs and chest cavity
5. What is pulmonary edema? An accumulation of fluid
in the alveolar spaces
6. What is consolidation? Area of the lung that is
filled with fluid. This fluid
may
be edema, inflammatory
exu- date, pus, water, or
blood.

8. S1 heart sound Mitral and tricuspid valve
closing
9. The lub of the lub dub when listening S1 (onset of ventricular sys-
to heart sounds tole)
10. S2 heart sound Closing of the aortic and
pul- monary valves
11. The dub of the lub-dub S2 (onset of ventricular
dias- tole)
12. S3 heart sound May occur in healthy
chil- dren and young
adults, phys- iologic
third heart sound. (lub-
dub-dub). It also indi-
cates a loss of ventricular
compliance in the
presence of heart disease
or heart failure. In this case
it is called ventric- ular
gallop.
13. S4 heart sound Occurs late in diastole
just before S1 (la-lub-
dub). Asso- ciated with
atrial contraction and
increased resistance to
ventricular filling. This
heart sound is rettered to
as atrial gallop.
