Bronchial sounds are heard most clearly over the trachea and the larger bronchial tubes. These sounds are characterized by a high-pitched, hollow quality and are typically louder during expiration than inspiration. They are normally not heard in peripheral lung areas, where breath sounds are expected to be softer and more vesicular. When bronchial sounds are heard in areas where they are not normally present, it may indicate the presence of lung pathology.

Where are the vesicular breathing sounds heard?

Vesicular breath sounds are soft and low pitched. These are the most commonly heard breath sounds. Diminished vesicular sounds are less robust than vesicular sounds. These sounds can occur in patients who move a lowered volume of air, such as in frail, elderly patients or shallow breathing patients.
