Tactile fremitus
Findings in pneumonia (left) and pleural effusion (right)
Place hands on each side of the thorax, ask the patient to say “toy boat” repeatedly (“ninety-nine” is also commonly used), and feel for vibrations transmitted throughout the chest wall. Vibrations are typically decreased over fluid-filled areas (blue area) and increased over areas of dense consolidation (yellow area).
Same for emphysema
air is present outside the lung in the thoracic cavity, which insulates breath sounds and vibration (fremitus) originating within the lung
