Step / Task
PREPARATION
Greet client respectfully and with kindness. Tell the patient what is going to be
done
Help the patient on to the examination table
Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water and dry with a clean dry cloth or air
drier
The examiner should stand at the patient’s right side
EXAMINATION TECHNIQUE
General Physical Examination (described elsewhere)
Locating Cervical Lymph Nodes
1. Make the patient comfortable and relax
2. Flexed the neck slightly forward and if needed slightly toward the examination
3. Palpate using the pads of your index and middle fingers
4. Move the skin over the underling tissue in each area
5. Describe location, quantity, size (diameter), consistency, movability, presence
specific formation (package).
Findings :
1. Preauricular – in front of the ear
2. Posterior auricular – superficial to mastoid process
3. Occipital – at the base of the skull posteriorly
4. Tonsilar – at the angle of mandible
5. Submandibular – midway between the angle and the tip of the
mandible. These nodes are usually smaller and smoother than lobulated
submandibular gland against which they lie
6. Submental – in the midline a few cm behind the tip of mandible
7. Superficial cervical – superficial to sternomastoid
8. Posterior cervical – along the anterior edge of trapezius
9. Deep cervical chain – deep to the sternomastoid and often inaccessible
to examination. Hook your thumb and fingers around either side of the
sternomastoid muscle to find them
10. Supraclavicular – deep in the angle formed by the clavicle and the
sternomastoid
TRACHEA
1. Inspect trachea for any deviation from its midline position.
2. Place the finger along one side of the trachea and note
the space between trachea and the sternomastoid.
3. Compare it with the other side. Normally the space
should be symmetrical.
Locating Chest abnormalities To locate vertically Anterior chest
1. Identify the suprasternal notch
2. Move your down about 5 cm
3. Find the horizontal bony ridge that join the manubrium to the body of
sternum.
4. Move your finger laterally and find the adjacent 2nd rib and costal cartilage
Performance
Scale

5. From here you can walk down the interspaces.
6. The first intercostals space below the 2nd rib is the second intercostals space.
Posterior chest
1. Flexed the patients neck forward
2. Find the most prominent process
3. The most prominent is the C7
4. When two process appear equally prominent they are C7 and T1
5. Then you can felt and counted the process below them
6. You can also estimating location from location of inferior angle of scapula is
usually leis at the level of the 7th rib of interspace.
To locate findings around the circumference of the chest
1. midsternal and vertebral are lines drops vertically mid sternal and
midvertebral
2. Identify both end of the clavicle and the midclavicular line drops vertically from
the mid point of clavicle.
3. Anterior and posterior axillary lines drop vertically from the anterior and
posterior axillary folds
4. The midaxillary line drops from the apex of the axilla
TECHNIQUES OF CHEST EXAMINATION : Examine the anterior chest
Inspection
1. place the patient in supine position
2. your position is in the midline position in front of the patient
3. inspect the shape of the chest and the way in which it moves
4. findings : deformities or asymmetry, abnormal retraction of interspace during
inspiration, impairment of respiratory movement on one or both side or a
unilateral lag (delay) in the movement.
Palpation
Test respiratory expansion
1. place your thumb about at the level of and parallel to the 10th ribs, your hands
grasping the lateral rib cage.
2. Slide your hand medially a bit in order to raise loose skin folds between your
thumb and the spine.
3. ask the patient to inhale deeply
4. Watch the divergence of your thumbs during inspiration and feel for the range
and symmetry of respiratory as the thorax expands and feel for the extent and
symmetry of respiratory movement.
Tactile fremitus
a. use either the ball (the bony part of the palm at the base of the fingers) or the
ulnar surface of your hand and place it in both side of the chest symmetrically
b. ask the patients to repeat the words “ninety nine” or “one – one – one”
c. repeat this examinations in other areas of the chest symmetrically
Percussion
1. hyperextend the middle finger of your left hand (the pleximeter finger)
2. press its distal interphalangeal joint firmly on the surface to be percussed.
3. AVOID contact by any other part of the hand
4. Position your right forearm quite close to the surface with the hand cocked
upward. The right middle finger should be partially flexed, relaxed, and poised to
strike
5. Strike the pleximeter finger with the right middle finger (the plexor), with a
quick, sharp but relaxed wrist motion
6. Aim the strike at your distal interphalangeal joint.
7. Learn to identify five percussion notes which can be distinguished by
differences in their basic qualities of sound : intensity, pitch and duration.
Auscultation
1. instruct the patients to breath deeply through an open mouth
2. listen to breath sound with the diaphragm of your stethoscope
3. move your stethoscope from one side to the other and comparing symmetrical
areas of the lung
4. pattern of breath sound identified by their intensity, pitch, and relative
duration of their inspiratory and expiratory phases
5. the normal breath sounds are : vesicular, bronchovesicular and bronchial
6. listen for any added or adventitious sound that are superimposed on the usual
breath sound. Adventitious sounds are crackles (rales), wheezes and rhonchi
7. if you hear crackles, listen for the following characteristics
a. loudness, pitch and duration (summarized as fine or coarse crackles)
b. number (few to many)
c. timing in respiratory cycle
d. location on the chest wall
e. persistence of their pattern from breath to breath
f. any change after a cough or a change in the patients position
8. if you hear wheeze or rhonchi , note their timing and location and do they
change with deep breathing or coughing
9. if you hear abnormally located bronchovesicular or bronchial breath sound,
continue on to asses transmitted voice sound.
10. With stethoscope, listen in symmetrical areas over the chest, as you :
g. ask the patient to say “ninety nine”. Normally the sound transmitted through
the chest wall are muffled and indistinct. Louder and clearer voice sounds are
called bronchophony
h. ask the patient to sal “ee” you will normally hear a muffled long E sound.
When “ee” is heard as “ay”. An E to A change (egophony) is present.
i. Ask the patient to whisper “ninety nine” or “one – two – three “. The
whispered voice is normally heard faintly and indistinctly. Louder, clearer
whispered sounds are called whispered pectoriloquy
