What is Pediatric Cardiac Examination Guide about?
This document provides guidance on performing a cardiac examination for a pediatric patient. It outlines the steps to take including: obtaining vital signs and history; inspecting the patient for signs of distress, clubbing, edema; palpating pulses; auscultating heart sounds; and examining for organomegaly or other signs of heart failure. Performing a thorough cardiac exam takes practice but allows for identifying potential cardiac pathology that may require referral to a cardiologist.
