How the paediatric examination at home works
The paediatric examination begins with the medical history. When the child is still young, the in interview is done with the parents who are invited to tell the paediatrician about behaviours, habits and everything they consider relevant in the growth of the child.
The paediatric examination involves an observation of the general state of health as well as the check of the painful area and of the reported symptoms.
Child’s weight and height are always measured, sight and hearing are checked and spontaneous movement observed.
The active participation of the parent is always very important to reassure the little patient.
