The physical examination is a key part of a continuum that extends from the history of the present illness to the therapeutic outcome.
If the history and physical examination are linked properly by the physician's reasoning capabilities, laboratory tests should in large measure be confirmatory.
The physical examination, however, can be the weak link in this chain if it is performed in a perfunctory and superficial manner.
Understanding the pathophysiologic mechanism of a physical abnormality is essential for correct diagnosis and management.
For instance, the failure to discriminate between and know the origin of carotid bruits and transmitted sounds of valvular origin can have critical significance.
As knowledge of disease changes, the techniques of physical examination become augmented.
The astute physician constantly reviews and adds to the repertoire of techniques for physical examination.
