i.Longer/higher the wheeze, the worse the obstruction. If wheeze suddenly stops, assume the worst - airflow is completely obstructed. ii.Bilateral wheeze may be asthma bronchospasm or acute/chronic bronchitis iii.Unilateral wheeze may be foreign body/swelling/tumor What are vesicular sounds? ~ a. Lung sounds charac by pitch, intensity, quality, duration b. Are characterized as vesicular, bronchovesicular (over major bronchi, moderate pitch/intensity), and bronchial (heard over trachea....

Health Promotion and Disease Prevention (MODULE 2)A nurse is preparing to auscultate a client's breath sounds. To assess vesicular breath sounds, the nurse places the stethoscope over: - correct answer The peripheral lung fields Rationale: Vesicular breath sounds are heard over the peripheral lung fields, where air flows through the smaller bronchioles and alveoli. Broncho vesicular breath sounds are heard over the major bronchi. Bronchial (tracheal) breath sounds are heard over the trachea ...
