Verified step by step guidance

Understand the purpose of auscultation: Auscultation is used to listen to the internal sounds of the body, typically using a stethoscope. In this context, it is used to assess lung sounds.

Identify the parts of the stethoscope: The stethoscope has two main parts for auscultation - the diaphragm and the bell. The diaphragm is used for high-frequency sounds, while the bell is used for low-frequency sounds.

Determine the correct part of the stethoscope for lung sounds: Lung sounds are typically high-frequency sounds, so the diaphragm of the stethoscope is the appropriate choice for assessing lung sounds.

Consider the patient's breathing technique: To accurately assess lung sounds, the patient should breathe deeply through the mouth. This allows for better transmission of lung sounds and helps in identifying any abnormalities.

Combine the correct stethoscope part and breathing technique: Use the diaphragm of the stethoscope and ask the patient to breathe deeply through the mouth to effectively assess lung sounds.
