  • Front
  • Back
reference lines for posterior
and anterior thorax
posterior = spine ( retrebral process)
p.304. anterior line ( mid sternal & mid clavicular.
most important thing to remember when auscultating the lungs
listen to a complete respiratory cycle
LUNG CANCER RISK FACTORS
smoking
enviromental exposure
africal american men
beta carotenesupplements
Tripod positioning
COPD or Emphasema b/c it tries to fully expand the lungs by giving the chest cavity more space
test for lung expansion by...
placing hands on back, take a deep breath, look for how big a breath they can take. looking for 5-10 cm
sounds you expect to hear over the posterior thorax
resonance
(hear the air w/in the lungs)
client w/ ephasima or COPD , expect to hear...
hyper resonance (over inflation)
if you are percussing posterior thorax at the clavicular line
listen for flatness of the scapula
lower pt of ribcage, on rightside
listen for dullness = over the liver
broncophony
'99,99' = auscultate and listen for NOMAL = muffled.

If Clear=alectisis, tumor or pneumonia
Egophony
repeat letter (long) E.
listen to chest wall. should sound muffled.
If clear = consolidation of tissue
Whispered Pectoriloquy
"whisper 1,2,3"
should be faint and muffled. clear = consolidation of tissue. (pneuonia)
Crepitus
vibration detected by palm of the hands, have them take deep breaths
how often should a woman do her breast exam
once a month at the same day
paying most attention to...
upper outer quadrant, and the tail of spence
signs of malignancy
dimpling, tenderness,discharge,asymetric veneous pattern, retracted nipple ( previously everted).restricted movement, fibrosis
track of blood thru heart
pulm. A leaves heart, goes to lungs carrying deoxygenated blood, pulmonary vein carries oxygenated from lungs back to the heart.
electrical conduction starts in the
SA NODE ( pacemaker), sends it to the AV node, then to bundle of his and to the purjinke fibers.
P wave
atrial depolarization
T wave
ventricular repolarazation
S wave
ventricular depolarization
S1
systolic
mitral and tricuspid
S2
diastolic
aortic and pulmonary
auscultating the heart and the rate is so fast you can't tell which is which, how do you figure it out?
listen, auscultate the chest, auscultate and palpate carotid artery and pulse at the same time = s2.
Pulse = S2.
what projects of of NAM?
a tetrapeptide
palpating carotid artery
one at a time
pulse amplitude scale
normal is 2+
0= absent
1+ weak
3+ increased
4+ bounding
palpating PMI or 1st or 2nd intercostal, think you hear something but not sure, what do you do
roll to left side, feel for a thrill.
aortic area for
R sternal border 2 intercostal space
erbs point
3-5 intercostal, left sternal border
mitral 5th
mid clavicular line
*only one not on a sternal border
pulmonic
4th intercostal, rt sternal border.
biggest difference betw.venal and arterial insufficiency
EDEMA ( VENOUS)
primary risk factors for cervical cancer
exposure to HPV
(human papilova virus)
multiple sex partners
pap smear
scrape cells off cervix and look under microscope for cancerous legions
anteverted
normal uterus position
RETROVERTED
NORMAL VARIATION IN WHICH UTERUS IS TILTED BACK
RETROFLEXED
normal variation uterine body flexed posteriorly
ANTEFLEXED
flexed anteriorly
Midposition
normal, pointed slightly more anterior
normal cervix w/ no kids
looks like a donut
children or abortion
slit or wink
cystocele
anterior wall bulging
retrocele
posterior wall bulging
Vulva (pudendum)
external genitalia; extends from mons pubis to anal opening.
mons pubis
fat pad over pubis symphasis; covered w/ hair;absorbs force during coitus.
labia majora
2 foldso of skin
extend posteriorly & inferiorly from mons pubis to perineum.
composed of fat, sweat glands, sebaceuos glands.
inferior surface is smooth, pink and moist.
Labia minora ( inside labia minora)
these folds join anteriorly at the clitoris & form a hood ( prepuce). posteriorly they form the FRENULUM; hairless; promote lubrication & maintain moist enviroment .
Clitoris
located @ anterior end of labia minora glans (visible rounded portion);corpus (the body);crura (2 bands of fibrous tissue that attatch it to the pelvis bone).
Vestibule
boat shaped fossa created by the folds of both labias; contains several openings 1.ureathral meatus and skene's glands.
Skene's glands
(lesser vestibular glands)
located on either side of the urethral opening. Usually not visible. they secrete mucus.
Vaginal orifice
external opening of vagina; can be slit like or irregular circular structure, depending on the configuration of the hymen.
Hymen
a fold of membraneous tissue that covers part of the vagina.
Bartholian Glands
(greater vestibular glands)
either side and slightly posterior to vaginal orifice (betw. orifice and laboria minora)
