Lower Tract

 There is a thin area of muscle at the back of the Triangle of Auscultation so it is easier to hear respiratory sounds at this location with a stethoscope. To facilitate hearing respiratory sounds, (since the triangle of auscultation is covered by the scapula bone), you would ask patients to fold their arms across their chest as they bent forward.
