Couldn't possibly be! First post and we know no one ever asks us to do homework.

I think OP is asking how to count. (Put in order 1-6). I'll take a stab.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6! Someone please check my work. Higher math is so confusing.

Then tell us what you think and your rationale. Help us to help you.

I wasn't trying to be insensitive in my earlier post. We have a lot of first time posters who request homework "help" aka asking someone to do their work for them without any input to never be heard from again.

Sooo... If you had to guess. What order would you pick and why? Do you have a textbook? Lecture?

This is on evolve and its a case study so there are no books ir lectures. This breathing pattern has study has 12 pages and im on page 11 and it wont let me go on without completing it and it wont tell me which ones ive gotten correct. I think its listen to anterior stand behind client have client raise arms listen to posterior then lateral then compare lateral

I forget the website but it said something about starting from top and ending at lungs or something

Think of the pattern you're supposed to go in. I know the book should show you. Good luck!

We dont have a book on case studies

Look in the book you used to learn how to do a respiratory assessment...the info you need should be there. If you don't have a book, go online and search for how to do a respiratory assessment.
