Physical examination

Background

Physical examination aims to obtain objective information. It is important to clarify the information received previously, in particular to check the condition of the sick animal. In conducting a physical examination, the investigator should at least have basic understanding about animal anatomy and physiology. They should also have the knowledge about normal condition. In this context, an investigator is not expected to become an expert in conducting a physical examination, but should understand and apply a routine and systematic approach to physical examination and be able to note significant changes from normal.
