This programme consists of two parts. The first part introduces typical steps a physical takes in his/her examination, and shows an example of communicative approach to the patients. Communicative questionings that are aimed at gaining the informed consent from the patient in each step of the physical examination are introduced together with the "Systemic review" of each part of the body.

The second part explains what needs to be focused on during the observation. While physicians collect information to judge the patient's mental state through the conversation and the physical examination, they also memorize and use these data for their evidence-based assumption and for their treatment plan.

It will take almost one hour to conduct a careful medical interview and physical examination. However, in actuality, it is rather rare that a doctor can have such an opportunity in his/her daily practice. This video introduces a practical technique to perform "systemic review" that enable the doctor to conduct a physical examination of the whole body in a brief period of time and introduces questions that can clarify other symptoms related with the body part being examined.
