cardio Flashcards
(43 cards)
S1 sound
“lub” closure of mitral and tricuspid valves, onset of systole
S2 sound
“dub” closing of aortic and pulmonary valves, onset of diastole
S3 sound
“ventral gallup” abnormal, ventrical filling associated with heart failure
S4 sound
“atrial gallup” abnormal, ventricular filling and atrial contraction
auscultation land mark aortic valve
2nd IC space, R sternal border
auscultation land mark pulmonic valve
2nd IC space, L sternal border
auscultation land mark tricuspid valve
4th IC space, L sternal border
auscultation land mark bicuspid/mitral valve
5th IC space, L midclavicular line
tidal volume
500mL - air inspired during normal breathing
inspiratory reserve volume IRV
3100mL - additional air that can be inhaled after normal tidal volume
expiratory reserve volume ERV
1200mL additional air that can be forcibly exhaled after normal tidal volume
residual volume RV
1200mL volume of air in lungs after ERV is exhaled
total lung capacity TLC
6000mL max amount of air that can fill lungs IRV+ERV+TV+RV
vital capacity
4800mL - total amount of air that can be expired after fully exhaling TV+IRV+ERV
inspiratory capacity IC
3600mL - max amount of air that can be inspired TV+IRV
functional residual capacity FRC
2400mL - amount of air remaining in lung after norma expiration RRV+ERV
rhonchi
abnormal sound, continuous low pitched rattling lung sound that resembles snoring
can be heard in pts with COPD, brinchiectasis, pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, or cystic fibrosis
wheeze
a high pitched sound heard in expiration, caused by airway obstruction (COPD, asthma, foreign body). in severe constriction it may be hear in inspiration as well
crackles
brief, discontinuous popping lung sounds that are high pitched can be heard in both phases of respiration
pleural rub
auscultation in the lower lateral chest areas it occurs with each inspiration and expiration, can be indication of pleural inflammation
vesicular breath sound
inspiratory longer than expiratory, soft intensity, low pitch, over most the lungs
broncho-vesicular breath sound
inspiratory and expiratory sounds are equal, intermediate intensity and pitch, between 1st and 2nd IC anteriorly and between the scapulae
bronchial breath sounds
expiratory sounds are longer, loud intensity and high pitch, over manubrium
tracheal breath sounds
inspiratory and expiratory are equal, very loud intensity and relatively high pitch, over trachea in the neck
