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 ).

7.Understand the location of the costovertebral angle
