• Inspection

• The method of observation is used during physical examinations. Inspection, or "looking at the patient," is the first step in examining a patient or a body part.

• Palpation

• The method of "feeling" with the hands is used during physical examinations. The examiner touches and feels the patient's body part with his hands to examine the size, consistency, texture, location, and tenderness of an organ or body part.

• Percussion• A method of "tapping" of the body parts during

physical examination with fingers, hands, or small instruments to evaluate the size, consistency, borders and presence or absence of fluid in body organs. Percussion of a body part produces a sound (like playing a drum) that indicates the type of tissue within the organ. Lungs "sound" hollow on percussion because they are filled with air. Bones and Joints "sound" solid. The abdomen "sounds" like a hollow organ filled with air, fluid, or solids.

• Auscultation• This method used to "listen" to the sounds of

the body during a physical examination can be performed by listening with the ear but is usually done by listening through a stethoscope. Health care providers routinely auscultate a patients lungs, heart, and intestines to evaluate the frequency, intensity, duration, number, and quality of sounds. Health care providers also use auscultation to listen to the heart sounds of unborn infants.
