Gonioscopy is a method of examining the angle of the anterior chamber, hidden behind the translucent part of the cornea (limbus), which is performed using a gonioscope and a slit lamp.
The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) was proposed in 1974 as a practical method for assessing coma. Impaired consciousness is classified based on impairment of three response mechanisms: pupillary, motor, and speech.
An important condition for a successful examination is, as already mentioned, the creation of maximum comfort for the patient - a sufficiently warm room where he is examined, the exclusion of prolonged nakedness of the body, uncomfortable positions, etc.
The existing approaches to examining a patient are aimed at developing in the doctor the skill of a certain sequence and especially completeness in studying patients. They are based on the principles of from the general to the particular, from the more superficial to the deeper, from the simpler to the more complex.
Gastroscopy is one of the methods of examining the organs of the gastrointestinal tract, which consists of an endoscopic examination of the stomach, esophagus or duodenum.
Gastric lavage is especially important at the pre-hospital stage, as it will lead to a decrease in the concentration of toxic substances in the blood.
Gastric endoscopy (EGDS, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, gastroscopy) is a type of endoscopic examination in which the duodenum, gastric mucosa and esophagus are examined using an endoscope.
