Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Wlbmont, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

  • You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:06, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

peer review!

  • It's great that you're doing this topic - so many people think it's just "listen to the heart" so they can really see what it entails and maybe even give them more answers into their diseases/health
  • It's a personal preference, but to use, or not to use, the oxford comma?
  • There probably isn't a lot of sources on this and you used the sources you have well. Some of the sentences seem like they could use a citation after them, since it often goes 2-3 sentences before seeing a citation.
  • Consider changing "This article will present the cardiac examination based on the different methods of evaluation" to just "The cardiac examination is based on different methods of evaluation," since the article is titled cardiac examination already and it is clear what it will discuss
  • I like this note, it's very true and adds that realism to it: "It should be noted, however, that the evaluation of a real patient will require switching between the different methods and even different organs to save time and keep the patient comfortable"
  • Don't need this parenthesized sentence: "(for example, listening to the heart and the lungs of a young child before they get bored)."
  • Is there an external link to "brachial artery?"
  • A video showing this technique would be awesome (if we can find one that can be used)!
  • This part: "(also known as the precordial exam)" can be put in the intro
  • Awesome inclusion! "Before moving any drapes, the patient should be asked if it is okay to move them"
  • Under pulmonary exam section, I wonder if you can just link "pulmonary exam" itself or put "(see pulmonary exam)" underneath, so you don't have to write "The specifics of pulmonary examination can be covered elsewhere."
  • Peripheral exam section is nice and complete, but is missing citations and external links
  • Need a reference heading
  • It doesn't seem to read like a wiki article, but I feel like we could let medical students use this as something they could follow or as a cheat sheet!
