hey -
just wondering if anyone out there could suggest a good heart or lung sounds CD to learn from. I just graduated from LPN school and am waiting to take my state test, but in the meantime I feel like I need to be doing something to freshen up my skills. I don't think I feel completely confident in this area anyways...thanks for you help in advance!

Go online and try out the www.wilkes.med.ucla.edu/inex.htm website. You'll hear examples of both heart and lung sounds and the abnormal ones. And it's free!

Try Bodyworks
it has lessons and alot of factual info
you can also picture everything in 3D and cut things in half or watch the blood flow etc etc
I found this CD helped so much when I was studying that we burnt one for the whole class & my teacher kept one also.
regards & goodluck
