Clinical diagnostic criteria on lung syndromes

  Dyspnea Cough Sputum Systemic symptoms Inspection Palpation Percussion Auscultation Bronchial asthma difficult breathing dry, non-productive cough and viscous mucus Thicker white mucus due to release of maximum WBC. - shortness of breath - cough (worse at night) - wheezing (high-pitched whistling sound) - typically with exhalation - wheezing or whistling (Which mean inflammation) - nose and throat for swelling and drainage that could be caused by allergies. - Expiratory Dyspnea - Cyanosis - Changes in form of intercostals, supraclavicular, subcostals and Sternal Retraction - Barrel Chest & Elevated chest - decrease in symmetrically chest wall expansion. - decrease in vocal fermitis   - Resonance (Hyper or Normal) - Acute Emphysema - Checking the sounds of the lungs - course crackle, grunting wheezes - Normal or Reduce Breath sound ...
