AB  - KEY  POINTSThe  key  to  a  good  physical  exam  in  critically  ill  patients  is  the  ability  to  interface  medical  technology  with  the  patient's  clinical  presentation.Performing  both  planned  and  quick  focused  (ie,  unplanned  or  emergent)  exams  can  make  the  difference  in  timely  diagnosis  and  treatment,  thus  having  a  positive  impact  on  patient  outcome.Acute  and  life-threatening  situations  in  the  intensive  care  unit  are  inevitable  and  timely  examination  is  imperative.  The  initial  visual  assessment  should  take  no  more  than  10  seconds.
