In assessing respiratory abnormalities, palpation and auscultation are critical tools for detecting and interpreting various pathophysiological changes. These techniques provide insight into underlying disorders by evaluating tactile sensations and sounds produced by the respiratory system.
Palpation Findings
During a respiratory assessment, palpation can reveal several vital abnormalities:
Auscultation Findings
Auscultation of the lungs can identify various abnormal sounds that reflect disruptions in airflow and the lung parenchyma:
The findings from palpation and auscultation provide vital clues that help diagnose and manage respiratory conditions. Each abnormality detected by these methods offers insights into the possible etiology and anatomical changes occurring within the chest cavity, assisting clinicians in formulating appropriate therapeutic interventions.
