Solved by a verified expert:Unit 8: Musculoskeletal
When you are performing an examination on your patient it is
known as Objective data. It is important for you to be comfortable with the
normal in order to know what is abnormal. Practice the skills of inspection, palpation
and auscultation a few times during the week for at least 2 hours in order to
improve your skills. If there is a cranial nerve to be assessed please make
sure you include it. Equipment needed: tape
measure and skin marking pen
