With emphysema, the heart rate will increase as the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">heart tries to compensate for less oxygen to the tissues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barrel chest is correct. Clients with emphysema lose lung elasticity; the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">diaphragm becomes permanently flattened by hyperinflation of the lungs; the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">muscles of the rib cage become rigid; and the ribs flare outward. This produces<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the barrel chest typical of emphysema clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clubbing of the fingers is correct.
