If Tina had mentioned that she was just diagnosed with pneumonia, what would you
Subjective Data have expected to find during percussion?
Collection Objective Data Correct: Dull percussion sounds are expected over the areas of diffuse infiltrate (accumulation of fluid
and by products of inflammation) in a patient with pneumonia.
Collection Education &
Hyperresonance
Empathy Documentation
Tympany
Resonant
Student Pre-Survey
Dullness (Correct Response)
Lifespan
Review Questions
If the results of Tina’s pulse oximetry had been 97%, which of the following would
Self-Reflection have been true?
Correct: Pulse oximetry measures the percent of hemoglobin molecules that are filled with oxygen.
Oxygen- saturated hemoglobin absorbs light wavelengths differently than unsaturated hemoglobin. The
oximeter emits a light and reads the extent of wavelength absorption.
Partial pressure O2 = 97%
Unbound oxygen level = 97%
PaO2 = 97%
Arterial hemoglobin saturation = 97% (Correct Response)
Suppose that, during your lung exam on Tina, you had heard bronchial breath sounds in
the left lower lung posteriorly. What would you have suspected based on this finding?
Correct: Increased breath sounds are indicative of lung consolidation (fluid-filled alveoli) or pleural
effusion (fluid accumulation in the pleural space) because fluid transmits sounds better than air. This
finding is usually accompanied by abnormal transmitted voice sounds and increased tactile fremitus.
Normal lung exam
Atelectasis
