Physical Assessment Module 5 Quiz Study Guide
1.Understand the procedure to perform light palpation on the abdomen
oLight palpation is used to detect tenderness. The examiner should systematically palpate the entire abdomen by using the flat part of his or her right hand or the pads of the fingers, not the fingertips. The fingers should be together, and sudden jabs are to be avoided
oLight palpation can help determine if there is tenderness as well as anything grossly abnormal such as a mass or enlarged organ. The abdomen should be soft and nontender
2.Learn how to assess the kidney for tenderness
oTo assess kidney, place one hand over the 12th rib at costovertebral angle on back. Thump that hand with ulnar edge of your other fist
3.Understand why auscultation is performed first
oFor the abdomen, the second assessment technique is auscultation. This is because percussion and palpation will stimulate intestinal movements and the needed information is the baseline bowel sounds (percussion and palpation can increase peristalsis, which would give a false interpretation of bowel sounds ).

oThe registered nurse’s primary job in terms of assessment of the genitalia, rectum, anus, or prostate is, in most cases, aiding the physician, nurse practitioner, or physician’s assistant in the assessment, helping to position the client and collect specimens
6.Understand what hypoactive and hyperactive bowel signs are
oIf you hear approximately 5-30 sounds/minute, they are considered
to be normoactive; less than 5 sounds/minute are considered hypoactive; more than 30 sounds/minute are considered hyperactive
7.Understand the location of the costovertebral angle
oThe costovertebral angle (CV A) is located on your back at the bottom of your ribcage at the 12th rib. It’s the 90-degree angle formed between the curve of that rib and your spine
8.Know what organs are located in a particular quadrant (RUQ, RLQ, LUQ, LLQ)https://www.coursehero.com/file/75043687/Physical-Assessment-Module-5-Quiz-Study-Guidedocx/This study resource was
