OSCE PREFINAL EXAM

 OSCE- PREFINALS DEC 2023: Case report :    I have tried to answer some of the questions regarding case discussion of our patient    1. How to clinically differentiate between coarse and fine crepitations ? Ans-  well, crepitations or crackles  are adventitious respiratory sounds which occur when an obstructed airway due to accumulated  secretions opens in inspiratory phase. The sudden opening of an obstructed airway causes an immediate re-equilibration of the pressures on both sides creating vibrations in the airway walls.  Fine crackles --  A).  having a short duration and a higher pitch,           Often, fine crackles are repetitive, originate          in the basal part of the lung, and not altered          by coughing. B) Coarse crackles  appear to be a longer                     duration and a   lower pitch.      There is no specific location from where                  coarse crackles primarily originate. They are        often altered by coughing. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc
