Hearing
- Response to normal voice tone : Patient’s response to voice is normal and audible.
- Watch tick test: Patient is able to hear ticking sound of the watch in both ears but with little difficulty.
- Weber’s test: In the Weber test, the stem of a tuning fork is placed gently against a midline structure of the
skull (i.e., the maxillary incisor teeth or vertex of the cranium or forehead) and the patient is asked where he
hears the sound. Sound is transmitted to both ears through the air but particularly through the vibrations of
the bones of the skull. If sound is transmitted to both sides equally, the sound is heard in the midline and it
can be presumed that the conduction and neural apparatus is intact. With neural deafness, the sound
transmits best to the normal side and the patient lateralizes the sound to that side. With conduction deafness,
sound transmits best to the side of the deafness. This is thought to occur because ambient sound is prevented
from getting to the cochlea on the blocked side. This causes the nervous system to amplify sounds on that
side by sensitizing cochlear transduction. This can be demonstrated by plugging an ear with finger, causing
conduction deafness, and then humming. The sound will be heard well on the occluded side. The test was
done on my patient and it was found that the hearing was not clear in both ears which is due to ageing.
(E) NOSE
External nose : Symmetric.
Nasal septum : Located midline.
Patency of nasal cavity : Air moves freely as client breaths through the nares.
Frontal and maxillary sinus : Normal.
Smell : Normal.
(H) CHEST
Expansion of the chest : Symmetrical expansion of chest.
Palpation
-Tactile fremitus: Place the bony aspects of the hand (ball or ulnar surface) on the patient's chest
Using one or two hands at a time, palpate bilaterally in an L-shaped pattern as outlined:
o Posterior chest: Start at level of T1 (in between scapulae), descend to areas of T4 and T6, then finish
laterally at T8 area.
o Anterior chest: Start at the level of sternal angle, then between the nipple and sternum, and finish
laterally along costal margin.
Ask the patient to repeat the words "ninety-nine" in a sufficiently deep and audible voice for each point on
the chest
Compare symmetry from side-to-side. The test was done on my patient and sound produced was
asymmetrical due to collection of secretions.
-Thoracic excursion: It is performed by asking the patient to exhale and hold it. The examiner
then percusses down their back in the inter-costal margins (bone will be dull), starting below the scapula, until
sounds change from resonant to dull (lungs are resonant, solid organs should be dull). That is where the examiner
marks the spot. Then the patient takes a deep breath in and holds it as the examiner percusses down again, marking
the spot where the sound changes from resonant to dull again. Then the examiner will measure the distance
between the two spots. Repeat on the other side, is usually higher up on the right side. If it is less than 3–5 cm the
patient may have pneumonia or pneumothorax in which a chest x-ray is diagnostic for either. The test was done
on my patient and distance is 5cm.

DEFINITION OF COPD:
Cholelithiasis referes to calculi, or gallstones, usually form in the gallbladder from the solid
constituents of bile; they vary greatly in size, shape, and composition.
If gall stones migrate into ducts of biliary tract it is known as choledocholithiasis.
ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF GALLBLADDER:
The gallbladder, a pear-shaped, hollow, sac like organ that is 7.5 to 10cm (3 to 4 in) long, lies in a
shallow depression on the inferior surface of the liver, to which it is attached by loose connective
tissue.
The capacity of the gallbladder is 30 to 50 ml of bile. Its wall is composed largely of smooth muscle.
The gallbladder is connected to the common duct by the cystic duct.
Functions as a storage depot for bile.
TYPES OF GALL STONES:
1. Cholesterol stones: those composed predominantly of cholesterol. If excessive cholesterol is
present and insufficient bile acid is secreted, bile becomes supersaturated with cholesterol and
results in cholesterol stones.
2. Pigment stones: probably form when unconjugated pigments in the bile precipitate to form
stones.
3. Mixed stones: combination of cholesterol and pigment stones.
ETIOLOGY:
• Excessive amounts of cholesterol .
• Increase body weight and older age with increased cholesterol in the bile.
• Bile contains too much bilirubin.
RISK FACTORES:
• Family history
• Obesity
• Women, especially those who have had multiple pregnancies.
• Women of native American or U.S. southwestern Hispanic ethnicity
• Frequent changes in weight
• Rapid weight loss
• Treatment with high estrogen therapy
• Cystic fibrosis
• Diabetes
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY:
Decreased bile acid synthesis.
|
Increased cholesterol synthesis in the liver
|
Super saturation of bile with cholesterol
|
Formation of precipitates
|
Gall stones(cholelithiasis)
|
Inflammatory changes (cholecystitis)
CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS OF CHOLITHIASIS:
DIAGNOSTIC TESTS:
(BOOK PICTURE):
1. Abdominal X-Ray
2. Ultrasonography
a radioactive agent is administered intravenously(I/V). The biliary tract is then scanned, and images of
the gallbladder and biliary tract are obtained.
4. Cholecystography:
The normal gallbladder fills with this radiopaque substance. If gallstones are present, they appear as
shadows on the x-ray film.
The procedure system via a side viewing flexible fibreoptic endoscope insertion through the
oesophagus to the descending duodenum.
(PATIENT PUCTURE):
In my patient ultrasound was done which identified cholelithiasis of size 45x40x35mm
CBC, LFT,KFT was also done.
MEDICAL MANAGEMENT OF CHOLELITHIASIS:
COMPLICATION OF CHOLELITHIASIS:
➢ Chronic cholecystitis
➢ Acute cholecystitis
➢ Choledocholithiasis
➢ Gallstone pancreatitis
➢ Gallstone ileus
➢ Perforation of gall bladder
➢ Gallbladder carcinoma
