Both of the regular intravenous solutions administered in medicine, normal saline and lactated Ringer’s solution, are isotonic. Why is this important?
Explanation:
<em>Because the isotonic saline solution</em> has a sodium concentration similar to that of blood.
ISOTONIC SOLUTIONS: <em>The osmolarity of the isotonic fluid approximates the osmolarity of serum plasma. </em>Isotonic fluids are used to hydrate the intravascular compartment in situations of significant fluid loss, such as dehydration, bleeding, etc.

Explanation:
Auscultation in medicine, is the action of listening to sounds from the heart, lungs, or other organs, usually using a stethoscope, in order to perform medical diagnosis.
Auscultation is performed for the purposes of examining the circulatory and respiratory systems, as well as the alimentary canal. The procedure is best performed in a quiet examination room. A stethoscope is used to magnify internal sounds. Small changes in breath sounds are carefully observed in order to make a diagnosis.
Whispered pectoriloquy is used to detect vocal resonance. It is used as a means of finding masses (consolidations e.g. pus) in the lung and is performed by having the patient quietly whisper a word. If fluid or a mass is present, words that are whispered may be heard clearly.
