Lung Exams

[Chantels1]

This should probably go in the Nursing student section, but I thought you all might like to see this anyway. I was just looking up pictures on the net to convince my husband to quit smoking. I came across this site on how to do a lung exam and thought I would share it.

Thanks for the Link Chantel, there are lots of good assesments that will help us in nursing school. Also many of those things help with AP we did a section on lung sounds and there is the vital signs section we had a lab on in AP. So I am glad you posted it here.

chantels1. . .very nice of you to post this! this website is actually already posted on one of the sticky threads on the nursing student assistance forums:

• https://allnurses.com/forums/f205/health-assessment-resources-techniques-forms-145091.html - health assessment resources, techniques, and forms (in nursing student assistance forum)
  

these kinds of resources will be of great help to you when you get into actual nursing classes.

here is a site where you can learn how to distinguish between the different sounds you hear in the lung when you are listening with a stethoscope. this is also part of assessing the lung:
