Crackles heard in the lungs of a person with pneumonia using a stethoscope. Crackles, crepitations, or rales (/ËrÉËlz/ RAHLZ or /ËrÃ¦lz/ RALZ) are the clicking, rattling, or crackling noises that may be made by one or both lungs of a human with a respiratory disease during inhalation. They are often heard only with a stethoscope (on auscultation).
CONCLUSIONS Recognition of age-related pulmonary crackles (rales) is important because such clinically unimportant crackles are so common among elderly patients that, without knowledge of this phenomenon, their existence might interfere with the physicianâs management of cardiopulmonary patients.
