Text “Examination of the patient”
Before treating the patient it is necessary to make a correct diagnosis of the disease and to determine its etiology, i.e. the causes of the disease. The doctor must know well the pathogenesis of any disease. The way and mechanism of its development, as well as the symptoms by which it can be revealed. A number of different procedures is used to establish a diagnosis; history-taking, physical examination, which includes visual examination, palpation, percussion, auscultation, laboratory studies, consisting of urinalysis, blood, sputum, and other analysis; instrumental studies, for example ,taking ectrocardiograms or cystoscopy, X-ray examination and others. For determining diseases it is very important to know its symptoms such as breathlessness, edema, cough, vomiting, fever, hemorrhage headache, and others.
