The document provides guidance on performing a physical examination of the abdomen. It describes inspecting the abdomen to check for distention, striae, pulsations, scars or masses. Palpation involves checking for tenderness, enlarged organs, masses, and shifting dullness over the liver and spleen. Percussion is used to evaluate the borders of the liver and spleen. Auscultation listens for bowel sounds and vascular sounds over arteries. The examination evaluates for signs of conditions like ascites, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, and their underlying causes.

Inspection consists of visual examination of the abdomen with note made of the shape of the abdomen, skin abnormalities, abdominal masses, and the movement of the abdominal wall with respiration. Abnormalities detected on inspection provide clues to intra-abdominal pathology; these are further investigated with auscultation and palpation.
This is a powerpoint slideshow discussing some of the commonest disorders of colon; namely Hirschsprung's disease, Diverticular diseases of colon, ulcerative colitis, pseudomembranous colitis and ischemic colitis.
This presentation gives general overview of all aspects of bowel sounds including its pathophysiology, auscultation techniques and features of normal versus abnormal bowel sounds.

The abdominal examination consists of four basic components: inspection, palpation, percussion, and auscultation. It is important to begin with the general examination of the abdomen with the patient in a completely supine position. The presence of any of the following signs may indicate specific disorders.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

The Gram stain is a fundamental technique in microbiology used to classify bacteria based on their cell wall structure. It provides a quick and simple method to distinguish between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, which have different susceptibilities to antibiotics

General Examination
Thin or obese?, Record weight, height, waist circumference and BMI.
obesity is truncal or generalised, abdominal striae (rapid weight gain, previous pregnancy
or Cushing’s syndrome).
Inspect the patient’s hands for Finger Clubbing (liver cirrhosis,IBD and malabsorption
syndrome), koilonychia, leuconychia (white nails) and palmar erythema (Chronic liver
diseas), asterixis (flapping tremor) (hepatic encephalopathy).

2. Abdominal Examination
Pt. In Supine Position with pillow under the head to relax the abdominal wall muscles.
Inspection
1- From End of Bed
• look for any Abdominal Distention (Ascites,
Intestinal obstruction) or Mass (abdomen Extending
or Not; Symmetry “Both side Move Above and Below
During inspiration and expiration “ or Asymmetry.
2- From Rt. Side
• Visible veins (portal hypertension or vena cava obstruction)
• Skin In older patients (Campbell de Morgan spots)
are common and normal, striae, bruising, Rash.
• Abdominal scars and stomas or Mass
• Tube Drain
• Visible Pulsation (AAA “aortic abdominal aneurysm”, Mass)and peristalsis
• Hair Distribution
3- Bird View
• The umbilicus is usually inverted
• Umbilical at the level of the iliac crests if Rise (pregnant) down (ascites)
• umbilical hernia is a distended and everted umbilicus and may have a palpable
cough impulse
Expose the abdomen from the nipple to mid thigh
or from the xiphisternum to the symphysis pubis
• Ask Pt. To Cough or valsalva Maneuver for any Bulging

3. Palpation
• Ensure your hands are warm and clean
• Ask the patient to any pain and to report any tenderness during palpation
• Observe the patient’s face throughout for any sign of discomfort
1- superficial palpation
• Tenderness EG PUD; RH cholecystitis; LIF diverticulitis; RIF appendicitis or
Crohn’s ileitis)
• Masses
2- Deeper palpation
• Rebound tenderness (for area with tenderness in superficial palpation
• Describe any mass
• Enlarged organs (liver, gallbladder “Acute cholecystitis” (Murphy’s sign),
spleen and kidneys in turn during deep inspiration.
• guarding
• Rovsing’s sign (Acute appendicitis)
1- Site
2- Size
3- Surface (smooth or irregular or Nodular)
4-Shape (Regular or Irregular)
5- Consistency (Soft or Hard)
6- Moves on respiration
7- Fixed or mobile
8- Deep “intra-abdominal” or superficial
9- Mass is an enlarged abdominal organ or separate
from the solid organs) a gastric or pancreatic tumour
or an aortic aneurysm, metastatic cancer (‘Sister
Mary Joseph’s nodule’).
As the patient takes a deep breath
in, gently palpate in the right
upper quadrant of the abdomen; the
acutely inflamed gallbladder
contacts the examining fingers,
evoking pain with the arrest of
inspiration
Palpation in the left iliac fossa produces pain in the right iliac fossa
&
4. 1- Place your hand flat on the skin of the right iliac fossa
2- Ask the patient to breathe in deeply through the mouth
3- Move your hand progressively up the abdomen,
1 cm at a time, between each breath the patient takes, until
you reach the costal margin or detect the liver edge.
Hepatomegaly
Palpation
Percussion
• Ask the patient to hold their breath in full expiration
• Percuss downwards from the Rt. 5th or 2nd ICS
and mid-clavicular line
(dullness indicating upper border of the liver
• Measure the distance in from the upper border of
dullness to the palpable liver edge
• In the normal abdomen, the liver edge below the
right costal margin
Splenomegaly
• Place your hand over the patient’s umbilicus or RIF, ask the patient to inhale deeply
through the mouth.
• Move your hand diagonally upwards towards the left hypochondrium, 1 cm at a time
between each breath the patient takes
• If you cannot feel the splenic edge, palpate with your right hand, placing your left
hand behind the patient’s left lower ribs and pulling the ribcage forward
Palpation
Percussion
• Percuss over the lateral chest wall
• Dullness to percussion posterior to the left mid-axillary line beneath the 9th–11th ribs.

5. Ascites
Percussion
1- Shifting dullness
• With the patient supine, percuss from the midline out to the flanks, Keep your finger
on the site of dullness in the flank and ask the patient to turn on to their opposite side.
• Pause for 10 seconds to allow any ascites to gravitate, then percuss again. If the area of
dullness is now resonant, shifting dullness is present, indicating ascites.
Fluid Thrill (Fluid wave test)
Cause of Ascites
• Splenic vein thrombosis
• Portal vein thrombosis
• Cirrhosis
• Alcohol liver disease
• Liver metastases
• Right heart failure
• Nephrotic syndrome
• TB
Auscultation
• ileocecal valve
• 2 Renal A.
• 2 iliac A.
• 2 Femoral A.
• Hepatic hum
• Abdominal Aorta
