Hebrew term

נשימה בועית

Hebrew to English Medical Medical (general)
How would you translate this into doctorese? (It does not mean breathing like David Bowie.) The phrase is in the section describing examining the patient's chest. It is telling you what kind of breathing he is doing, but I'm at a loss for the right term. "NESHIMA BOEET SHAVEH V'TOVAH AL PNEI SHTAI HARAYOT"
