Each patient case history is broken down into 5 key stages:
3. Examination - Giving Instructions
4. Investigations & Treatment
5. Follow-up
After taking a history Dr Jones is ready to perform a physical examination. This usually requires giving the patient precise instructions to do the following things:
- to remove different items of clothing
- to perform certain physical functions (deep breathing, coughing, sticking out a tongue etc)
- to get into a particular position (lying face up, sitting, lying on the left side etc)
