# Definition Sets
1 a change in the voice sound of a patient with pleural effusion or pneumonia as heard on auscultation. when the patient is asked to make /ē-ē-ē/ sounds, they are heard over the peripheral chest wall as /ä-ä-ä/, particularly over an area of consolidated or compressed lung above the effusion. 39 sets
2 condition in which the sound "ee" spoken by the patient is heard as "ay" through a stethoscope placed over the lungs, possibly indicating consolidation. in a normal test, a muffled "ee" sound would be heard 27 sets
