Perform and check off standardized physical examination steps while racing against the official 8-minute rotation timer.
Standardized Physical Examination Checklist (Click steps to check them off as completed)
Wash hands, Introduce yourself, verify Patient identity, Explain examination & gain verbal consent, ensure Privacy & Position patient at 45°.
Assess distress, posture, respiratory effort, cyanosis, pallor, attached lines (O2, IV infusions, monitors, catheter bags).
Inspect hands for clubbing, splinter hemorrhages, tar staining, peripheral cyanosis, temperature. Palpate radial pulse (rate & rhythm), assess for collapsing pulse.
Examine eyes for conjunctival pallor and corneal arcus. Check oral cavity for central cyanosis. Assess Jugular Venous Pressure (JVP) height and waveform at 45° with tangential lighting.
Locate apex beat, assess for heaves and thrills. Systematic auscultation of all key anatomical areas using both diaphragm and bell with dynamic maneuvers.
Thank the patient, help them re-dress, wash hands. State further assessments: "To complete my examination, I would check blood pressure, 12-lead ECG, blood glucose, and review bedside charts."
