Physical Assessment Techniques: - Answer 1. Inspection: begins the moment you first meet the person
and develop a "general survey". It is close, careful scrutiny, first of the person as a whole, and then of
each body system.
2. Palpation: palpation applies your sense of touch to assess the following factors: temperature,
moisture, organ location and size, and any swelling, vibration or pulsation, rigidity or spasticity,
crepitation, presence of lumps or masses, and presence of tenderness or pain.
3. Percussion: tapping the person's skin with short, sharp strokes to assess underlying structures. The
strokes yield an audible vibration and a characteristic sound that depicts the location, size, and density of
the underlying organ.
4. Auscultation: listening to the sounds of the body such as the heart and blood vessels and the lungs
and abdomen. Uses a stethoscope.
, The Nursing Process: - Answer a. Assessment: gather information about the patient's condition
b. Diagnose: identify the patient's problem
c. Plan: set goals of care and desired outcomes and identify appropriate actions
d. Implement: perform the nursing actions identified in planning
e. Evaluate: determine if the goals are met and the outcomes are achieved
Vital Sign Assessment: - Answer 1.Temperature
-Rectal:Used when other routes are not practical or for critical care. (0.7-1 degree F) higher than an oral
temperature. Most accurate route, but time consuming, unaffordable, and invasive.
-Tympanic Membrane: eardrum using infrared emissions, quick and noninvasive, low risk of cross
contamination.
-Temporal Artery (TAT): Uses infrared emission by sliding the probe Across the forehead and behind the
ear. (1 degree F. higher than oral)
-Axillary: Used when temperature can not be obtained. (1 degree F. lower than oral)
2. Height
3. Weight
4. Respirations
5. Pulse
6.Blood Pressure
Normal guidelines for vital signs: - Answer 1. Temperature: 96.7-100.5
2. Pulse: 60-100 bpm
3. Respirations: 16-20 breathe per minute
4. Blood pressure: SBP: 100-140
DBP:60-90
5. O2 saturation: 90%-100%
Causes of normal variation in temperature: - Answer 1. Exercise: Exercise stimulates muscle activity and
requires an increased blood supply and increased carbohydrate and fat breakdown. Exercise will increase
heat production and body temperature.
