The lateral collateral ligament is on the lateral side of the knee and spans from the lateral side of the femur to the head of the fibula. Acting via the patella and patellar ligament, the quadriceps is a powerful muscle that extends the leg at the knee and provides support and stabilization for the knee joint.

Bradypnea is less than 12 breaths per minute, and tachypnea is greater than 20 breaths per minute. Break up the assessment by listening to the anterior lung sounds and then the heart sounds and allowing the patient to rest before listening to the posterior lung sounds.
