➡️TMC Exam Tips About Wheezing:
Wheezing can be caused by bronchospasm, and when this is the case, you should recommend a bronchodilator like albuterol.

One thing to be aware of:
You may see a question where a patient has a unilateral wheeze which indicates that a foreign body obstruction is present. In this case, you would want to recommend a bronchoscopy.

➜ Bilateral wheezing - recommend a bronchodilator.
➜ Unilateral wheezing - recommend a bronchoscopy.

An example of a foreign body obstruction is a bronchial mass as you would see in a patient with lung cancer. Or, in children, it could be that they swallowed an object that is causing unilateral wheezing.

➡️ One More Example for the TMC Exam:
Let's say you're assessing a patient in respiratory distress and they have diminished breath sounds. You don't hear any wheezing but the patient isn't moving much air. So you proceed to give the treatment. After the treatment was given, when you auscultate the patient again but this time you can hear audible wheezes.

Do you know what this means?
This means that the bronchodilator is working and the airways are starting to open up. Don't get this confused!
