Physical Signs of Chest Disorders: Each of the following disorders is defined and described. A typical chest x-ray is presented along with typical audio lung sounds for the condition. Signs and symptoms associated with the disorder is presented that includes: cough and sputum characteristics, chest inspection characteristics, chest palpation characteristics, chest percussion characteristics, and chest auscultation characteristics. Recommended treatment for the disorder is also presented.

Practice Identifying Lung Sounds: Presents the user with more than 40 randomized lung sounds in which he/she must identify. Tracks and scores correct as well as incorrect choices.

Interactive Case Studies: Presents the user with 11 randomized case studies in which the user is given a patient scenario and then must perform chest assessment (inspection, palpation, percussion, auscultation) to identify lung sounds and recommend therapy.

Comprehensive Review Quiz: The Comprehensive Review Quiz contains a test bank of 250 test questions obtained from all sections of The Complete Chest Examination. The test questions are generated in a randomized fashion and feedback is given for correct choices as well as incorrect choices. The user has the option of printing a score report after completing the quiz.
