I remember watching these videos as a medical student and Geeky Medics was actually just starting out. I've been a doctor for about 6 years now and use these videos every now and then for reference :). Thank you Geeky Medics for creating this great resource!

Doctors rarely have time during a routine 10 minute appointment to do all these thorough and helpful examinations. Many have even forgotten how to do them fully IMO due to lack of practice.

I think the sequence should be Inspection - Auscultation - Percussion/Palpation. Palpating prior to auscultation might distort bowel sounds. Also, it's recommended to ask the patient to bend the knees so that abdominal muscles are not tense. Writing these to help out other medical students out there! :)

The best guide i have ever seen. Thank you.

Thank you so much Geeky medics team ! this was super useful and very well explained , keep up the great work :)

I really like the example images. It really helps demonstrate what's normal and what's not.

3:26 woah! Dudes got a 9 pack! Impressive

A very informative video. A suggestion: While palpating various organs, it would be great if you add the area of palpatation. Like for liver, you can add which intercostal space to palpate for.

Also, have the patient bend their knees up to prevent the abdominal muscles from contracting.

I found this very helpful and useful especially those who will be taking OSCE this gives rationale behind everything being done. Great job!

Doing my OSCE in like 2 hours so you guys are a life saver thanks x

Question: How do you define increased bowel sounds? Also, shouldn't auscultation be done before palpation or percussion for abdomen? (To prevent alteration in bowel sounds)

@ZEEEEEEEEEE_

2-35 per minute according to Bates guide is the normal range. so above that is abnormal... and yes, auscultation before palpation. the pneumonic is IAPP when examining the abdomen 👍

Inspection Auscultation Percussion Palpation

Thak you guys for the great work. One thing i would do differently though is hearing for bowel sounds at the start and not at the end because all of these manouvers and palpations may temporarily alter bowel movement and thus give you a false positive.

You guys are awesome! Thanks!

Thank u so much! excellent!

Hello Geeky medics- when doing an abdominal exam, the sequence is different. Inspection, Auscultation, Percussion then Palpation.

Thank you so much for this!!!!

It was helpful thanks😊

Thank you , it was really helpful. PS: on inspection of the abdomen you wrote Pulsations twice

Thanks James thanks Dr

Thank you so much

thanks a lot for the video and the explanation if i may add this ( we should do auscultation of the abdomen before percussion not to upset the stomach )

Just a little detail, I'm a first-year medical student, halfway through my second term. But, we were taught that the first thing you have to do is auscultate bowel sounds. This is something my father, who has been a doctor for over forty years, agrees with. Is this somehow different in the way you were taught? It's not a critique, it's just a question.

thank you so much 💓💓

Murphy sign for cholecystitis??

Dont we need to palpate spleen??By all the 3 methods??

Thanks sooo much i've found your channel recently while i'm preping for my exam having to do with gastrointestinal examination it's nice😅 by the way as far as i'm concerned in terms of abdominal examination we replace the palpation by the auscultation i mean after inspection performing auscultation then percution and at last palpation as it affects normal BS is that correct ? if yes there is an error in this video .again i appreciate itttt so muchhh good luck geeky medix🙏🙏🙏

Thank u so much

I am currently a second yar paramedic student and have studied and learned a few of your osce videos and helped me pass my osces with flying colours. Also with the arrange of illness's when on placement, has really helped me make strong impressions on patients illness's. May I ask, as my university hasn't taught us about GI examinations yet, just curious if you anyone who I can message for questions as to why you are doing certain actions or via this thread please? Thank you!. @geekymedics

excellent demonstration but want to add that palpation of abdomen needs to be done while hips and knees are flexed to relax the abdominal fascia

May I ask why you didn't use the bell part of the stethoscope for bruit? Is it not necessary

Do we need to flex the knees before examining the patient?

Thank you for making this! I would also just like to add that we should avoid calling the exam table a bed (especially with female patients) while performing any kind of exam.

I see your point but tbf, most patients would consider it a bed and be a bit confused/disorientated if you called it an exam table. People don't lie on tables, they lie on beds. Although perhaps examination couch, if you want to avoid the word bed.

Thanku so much

fantastic

Thanks a lot

Thank u sir

Auscultate first before palpating and percussing.. because it might alter the bowel sounds upon palpating and percussing.

Thank you xxx

Superb

Thanks sir

Good video

U r awesome

I like when the doctor presses on my tummy during an exam.

Regardless if, Nursing or Medical: always Auscultate before percussion & palpation, And, use the Bell of stethoscope to auscultate for bruits. Great video otherwise to grasp the gist!

V nice

Hmm nice but you should always auscultate before palpation and percussion as these could alter bowel sounds. Thanks all the same

ASMR seekers anyone?

just wonder the reason to check the hands, face, eyes, and armpit in abdominal exam.
