CONTEXT Descriptions of subtle palpatory perceptions in osteopathic cranial palpation can be misperceived by students. Thus, adequate dissemination and replication of cranial palpatory techniques is challenging for osteopathy students. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of standardized protocol training on cranial palpation of the frontomalar suture. METHODS Fourth-year osteopathy students f...
In a new technique of palpation for renal anomalies in the newborn one hand supports the infant while the fingers of the other hand support the loin and the thumb explores the abdomen. In a series of 11 000 otherwise normal newborn children superficial palpation detected 11 renal anomalies, and deep palpation led to the discovery of another 42 anomalies. One of two other series in which palpati...
BACKGROUND Misidentification of the cricothyroid membrane in a "cannot intubate-cannot oxygenate" situation can lead to failures and serious complications. The authors hypothesized that preprocedure ultrasound-guided identification of the cricothyroid membrane would reduce complications associated with cricothyrotomy. METHODS A group of 47 trainees were randomized to digital palpation (n = 23...
physical therapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, and medical doctors1. Table 1 lists the different types of spinal motion palpation1,2. Four assumptions form the rationale for the use of motion palpation as a diagnostic tool3-5: 1. Spinal segmental motion abnormalities cause or contribute to functional limitation and disability. 2. Motion palpation is a reliable indicator of these motion abnorma...
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE Patellar tendinopathy is a common condition in sports. It may occur at any location of the patellar tendon, but the most commonly affected area is the inferior pole of the patella.

This paper investigated whether tapping on the median cubital vein or massaging the forearm was more effective in obtaining better venous palpation for venipuncture. Forty healthy volunteers in their twenties were subjected to tapping (10 times in 5 sec) or massage (10 strokes in 20 sec from the wrist to the cubital fossa) under tourniquet inflation on the upper arm. Venous palpation was assess...
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation in the elderly is common and potentially life threatening. The classical sign of atrial fibrillation is an irregularly irregular pulse. OBJECTIVE The objective of this research was to determine the accuracy of pulse palpation to detect atrial fibrillation. METHODS We searched Medline, EMBASE, and the reference lists of review articles for studies that compared...
