A. Trachea
B. Right clavicle
C. Right interscapular space
D. Axilla
Tubular breathing is seen in
A. Hemothorax
B. Pneumothorax
C. Pleural Effusion
D. Consolidation
Bronchial sounds are known as
A. Pectoriloquy
B. Bronchophony
C. Egophony
D. Tubular sound
Tests used to detect Vocal Resonance are all EXCEPT –
A. Meniscus sign
B. Bronchophony
C. Egophony
D. Whispered pectoriloquy
When pathological lung tissue distorts vowel sounds and makes them more nasal in quality called as
A. Echolalia
B. Bronchophony
C. Egophony
D. Whispered pectoriloquy
All are TRUE about bronchial sounds EXCEPT
A. Loud
B. Harsh
C. High pitched
D. Predominantly heard during inspiration
Terms high and low pitch are defined by the American Thoracic Society Committee
High pitch – 400hz or greater
Low pitch – 200hz or less
Bronchial sounds
- Also called tubular sounds
- Normally arise from the tracheobronchial tree
- Loud, harsh, and high pitched bronchial sounds are typically heard over the trachea or at the right apex.
- They are predominantly heard during expiration.
- If heard in other areas of the lung, bronchial sounds are abnormal.
Vesicular breath sounds
Vesicular breath sounds are soft, low pitched, predominantly inspiratory, and appreciated especially well at the posterior lung bases.
Bronchovesicular sounds
Bronchovesicular sounds can be heard during inspiration and expiration and have a mid-range pitch and intensity.
Bronchophony
Bronchophony -the voice appears closer and louder.
Egophony
Egophony -makes them more nasal in quality
Pectoriloquy
Pectoriloquy – describes the finding of a clear and intelligible sound when the patient whispers; it usually is unclear and unintelligible.
