Neurological or Musculoskeletal
What part of the neurological or musculoskeletal exam in the pediatric population, challenges you the most, and how do you plan on embracing it?
I want to define in the first paragrah what is a neurological and muculoskeletal exam
the most challenging situation its when i perform the
funduscopic exam to evaluate the appearance of the optic disk, macula,retina including to evaluate the pupillary size and reaction to light, when its a infant its not so difficult but when its a toddler its a challenge due to the fact the child get irritable and anxious during the procedure,
I plan to have some toys to start play with them and capture the attention of the child in other to perform the exam and during the process explain to them the different procedures are going to perform in order to reduce the stress and anxiety.
