Repetition Training Basic Lung Sounds

Bronchial - Auscultation Lesson

Here we present an example of bronchial breath sounds, which are hollow, tubular sounds that are higher pitched compared to vesicular sounds. Often they are harsher than vesicular sounds. They can be auscultated over the trachea where they are considered normal. There is a distinct pause in the sound between inspiration and expiration.
