I am going to have an exam tomorrow, and I am not going to pass it if you do not help me. I am a student of medicine. On the exam tomorrow I will have to hear through my stethoscope bronchitis breathing and to recognize it from normal breath sounds. Can you explain me what are the differences?

I am a student too, and I have past this exam so I think I am capable to help you. Normal breath sounds heard through the stethoscope at the periphery of the lungs are described as vesicular breath sounds, in which inspiration is louder and longer than expiration. When sounds transmission is improved through consolidated lung the resulting bronchitis breath sounds have a more tubular quality and a more pronounced expiratory phase.
