Audio files
[edit]While it's great that there are audio files for the various abnormal respiratory sounds, it would be helpful to have a file with normal respiratory audio as a base for comparison. DKqwerty 05:57, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
- I just created a Normal breath sounds section that includes normal breath sounds audio. Let me know what you think! Thanks! B12Braggart (talk) 22:30, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
No... this is wrong... (Logically incoherent)
[edit]This statement "inspiratory sounds are faster and louder and longer" doesn't make sense. The correct statement should be that expiratory sounds are LONGER than inspiratory, i.e. inspiratory sounds are SHORTER (or "faster") than inspiratory 182.255.99.214 (talk) 16:06, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Takes breath sounds and rhonchi are backwards Joelyarberry17 (talk) 23:25, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
Rhonchi (Contradictory?)
[edit]In the article it is said that "Since the mid-1990s, it [rhonchi] has no longer been considered appropriate terminology in auscultation of the thorax," however the word "rhonchi" is used in the table. It seems contradictory that the word 'rhonchi' is not considered 'appropriate' but is still used in the article. Should that be changed in some way? veganmartians1234 ((talk) — Preceding undated comment added 18:03, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
Inspiratory gasp audio file is unavailable.
[edit]"see New England Journal of Medicine, Classic Whooping Cough sound file, Supplement to the N Engl J Med 2004; 350:2023-2026" is not found on the page directed to, nor is it found in the NEJM search function. There is an article on the fundamentals of lung sounds, but either a subscription or a registration for 2 free articles is required. I do not know if audio files are associated with that article.
However, the Merck Manual, Professional Version website has an audio file: https://www.merckmanuals.com/professional/multimedia/audio/v1006252. Like stridor, this inspiratory gasping is considered an emergency. The gasping requires immediate suctioning and oxygen. Once heard in life coming from a tiny infant, it is unforgettable. >_<
Furthermore, at the Merck website, there are audio files for normal respirations, crackles, wheezing, stridor, friction rub, and the egophony of the spoken long E to long A change: https://www.merckmanuals.com/professional/pulmonary-disorders/approach-to-the-pulmonary-patient/evaluation-of-the-pulmonary-patient?query=pleural%20friction%20rub.

TCOM Medical Student Editing Respiratory Sounds
[edit]Hello, my name is B12Braggart and I am a third-year medical student located in Texas. I am participating in the WikiProject Medicine within my medical school and plan to edit this article. This post is intended to elicit feedback and learn of any areas this article needs to be improved in. In addition, this post will also serve as a "trial run" for my first talk page post. I hope I am able to make meaningful contributions to this topic!
Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I initially chose to evaluate Respiratory sounds as my article because of my interest in pulmonology as well as the classification as a Top article with a Start rating. This article matters because respiratory sounds are assessed in almost every medical physical exam by healthcare providers to assess pulmonary function and/or to rule out pulmonary disease. My preliminary impression of the article was that it was narrow and lacked complete coverage.
