منت خدای را عزوجل که طاعتش موجب قربت است و به شکراندرش مزید نعمت . هر نفسی که فرو می رود ممد حیات است و چون بر می آید مفرح ذات. پس در هر نفسی دو نعمت موجود است و بر هر نعمت شکری واجب .

منت خدای را عزوجل که طاعتش موجب قربت استوبه شکراندرش مزید نعمت. هر نفسی که فرو می رود ممد حیات است و چون بر می آید مفرح ذات. پس در هر نفسی دو نعمت موجود است و بر هر نعمت شکری واجب. laudation to the theGOD of majesty and glory obedience to him is cause of approach and gratitude in increase of benefits.Every inhalation of the breath prolongs life and every expiration of it gladdens our nature. wherefore every breath confers two benefits and for every benefit gratitiude is due. گلستان سعدي

Palpation • Thoracic Expansion (Excursion) • Place both thumbs at about 7th rib posteriorly along the spinal process • Extend the fingers of both hands outward over the posterior chest wall • Have the person take a deep breath and observe for bilateral outward movement of thumbs • Normal: bilateral, symmetric expansion • Abnormal: unilateral or unequal URDEN, L. D. 2010. diagnosis and management. Thelan's critical care nursing, 567-595.
Palpation(cont,) • Vocal Fremitus • Use palmar surfaces of hands • Systematically position hands over both sides of posterior chest • Have person repeat “1 – 2 – 3” or “99” as you move from the apices to the bases • Normal: bilaterally symmetrical vibrations • Decreased or absent: obstruction of transmission 0bronchitis, emphysema) • Increased: consolidation (compression) of lung tissue (pneumonia)
Percussion • Helps to identify if underlying tissues are air-filled, fluid-filled, or solid • Hyperextend middle finger of either hand and press against chest wall • Strike with flexed middle finger of opposite hand • Always percuss symmetrically on chest wall
Percussion(cont,) • Flatness • Thigh • Dullness • Liver • Resonance • Lung • Hyperresonance • None • Tympani • Stomach, puffed cheek URDEN, L. D. 2010. diagnosis and management. Thelan's critical care nursing, 567-595.

Auscultation(cont,) • Evaluate posterior, lateral, and anterior chest • Instruct person to sit upright and breathe in and out slowly through the mouth • This makes it easier to hear the air movement • Use the diaphragm of the stethoscope • To assess breath sounds, ask the patient to breathe in and out slowly and deeply through the mouth.

Adventitious Breath Sounds • Crackles (Rales) • Discontinuous, intermittent, nonmusical, brief sounds • Heard more commonly with inspiration • Classified as fine or coarse • Crackles caused by air moving through secretions and collapsed alveoli • Associated conditions • pulmonary edema, early CHF,… URDEN, L. D. 2010. diagnosis and management. Thelan's critical care nursing, 567-595.
Adventitious Breath Sounds • Wheeze • Continuous, high pitched, musical sound, longer than crackles • Hissing quality, heard > with expiration, however, can be heard on inspiration • Produced when air flows through narrowed airways • Associated conditions • asthma, COPD URDEN, L. D. 2010. diagnosis and management. Thelan's critical care nursing, 567-595.
Adventitious Breath Sounds • Rhonchi • Similar to wheezes • Low pitched • continuous, musical sounds • Implies obstruction of larger airways by secretions • Associated condition • acute bronchitis URDEN, L. D. 2010. diagnosis and management. Thelan's critical care nursing, 567-595.
