Great video. The only thing I thought was missing was you didn't mention which lobes you're auscultating in each position. Thank you for sharing though :)

@1sweet69

Thanks. Your right, we should have put that in there.

I was told you start from top, not bottom,...is it just preference where you start auscultating at? What type of stethoscope do you prefer? Would you recomend one over another?

@kuntreepryncess

We were taught to start at the bottom because the longer the pt is sitting there, the more "stuff" my settle into the bottom (I think - it has been a while now). As far as stethoscopes go - it depends on your pt population and what you will be using it for. All I can say is you def get what you pay for. I have a Littman and I like that.

This was a school project. It is intentionally "goofy". Please don't comment regarding the music. Critiques regarding the educational content are welcome.

@kuntreepryncess we were taught Top to Bottom as well,  "shrug".

@LindsayS115 yes I deleted it as I found that there is discrepancy in the texts and as such I had no place correcting your terminology. :)
