[00:00:00]Here's a quick tip. When you want to listen to your patient's lungs, ask them to breathe through their mouth. When they open their mouth and take a deep breath, you can actually hear their lung sounds. If they're breathing through their nose, you're not going to really hear lung sounds. You might hear just upper airway, mouth, nasally type stuff.
