Importance of the topic

Percussion of the chest is one of the basic, informative methods of examination of the respiratory patients. It allows revealing diagnostic signs of the respiratory diseases without modern additional investigations. Today, when doctor has a lot of additional diagnostic devices importance of percussion is less then before. But if doctor uses percussion during patient examination his diagnostic research becomes more efficient and fruitful. This method is very useful when doctor could not perform modern investigation and in an emergency situation. It is very important part of the diagnostic process.

2. Concrete aims:

─ Master principles, types and rules of percussion of the chest

─ Learn physical grounds of percussion

─ Perceive clear lung sound and it changes: dull and tympanic, their characteristics.

─ Performing and assessing comparative percussion of the chest

─ Know chest points and lines used for topographic percussion of the lung

─ Performing and assessing topographic percussion of the lung

Basic training level

Task for self-depending preparation to practical training

List of the main terms that should know student preparing practical training

Term	Definition
