Chema Nieto Castañón Sep 3, 2021:
My own reasoning here is that the English equivalent to the original Spanish expression will be one that naturally states in a rather unspecific way that lung auscultation is normal. I feel that lungs clear to auscultation / clear to auscultation bilaterally is the natural English equivalent.

It might be argued that sin ruidos sobreañadidos might correspond to the more specific "without wheezes, crackles or rhonchi" -or "no rales, rhonchi, or wheezes", etc.
I feel though that as far as translation goes a specific reference to wheezes, crackles, ronchi, stridor, etc. might be a little more specific than the original -but it would work fine in English and it would actually be an accurate translation of the original expression [lungs clear to auscultation without wheezes, crackles or rhonchi].

On the other side I have not been able to find original examples with "no added sounds" or any equivalent expression -included "no adventitious sounds" or the like- when assessing lung sounds on a medical report.
Chema Nieto Castañón Sep 3, 2021:
Nothing wrong with it, liz. It is just that "adventitious" does not sound like something you might find on a medical report. Instead you might read this;

Clear to auscultation bilaterally without wheezes, crackles or rhonchi

Lungs: Clear to auscultation. CV: RRR, no MRGs. Abdomen: Soft, nontender. Extremities: No peripheral edema

Respiratory: Lungs CTA bilaterally, no cough, equal rise and fall of chest. No SOB. GI: bowel sound present in all 4 quads, abd soft and nontender MS: ...


This is a very interesting link where you can see actual examples of medical transcriptions (lung physical exam section);

Don't see what is wrong with "adventitious":

Respiratory sounds - Wikipediahttps://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Respiratory_sounds
These include normal breath sounds and adventitious or "added" sounds such as crackles, wheezes, pleural friction rubs, stertor, and stridor.

Spanish term (edited): MV conservado sin sobreagregados
Selected

lungs CTA

El original (murmullo vesicular conservado sin ruidos sobreañadidos / agregados / sobreagregados) es fórmula habitual en castellano para indicar una auscultación pulmonar normal. El equivalente inglés diría que es lungs clear to auscultation (con o sin la explicitación de breath sounds equal bilaterally; BS=B).

Ver por ejemplo,
When the provider tells you that the lung exam is normal this means that the lungs are clear to auscultation and the breath sounds are equal bilaterally (Lungs CTA, BS = B).
https://medicalscribe.wordpress.com/lessons/lesson-5-physica...

Así, traduciría toda la expresión original (murmullo vesicular conservado sin sobreagregados) como lungs CTA (o bien lungs CTA, BS=B, con el mismo sentido de base si bien el BS=B no está explicitado en el original aunque se sobreentienda implícitamente).

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you, everyone. I personally prefer the choice of "adventitious sounds" or "added sounds" (in the name of simplicity), but because this is a formal medical report I'll choose Chema's answer for this context. I've added the following glossary entry: sin sibregregados > clear to auscultation."

neutral Chema Nieto Castañón : Hola liz, es correctísima la traducción de (ruidos) sobreagreagados como adventitious sounds. Sin embargo en el contexto de un informe médico diría que es harto extraño para un nativo utilizar esta denominación. "Clear to auscultation" parece más natural.
