Abstract

Background: The most important elements for evaluation and clinical diagnosis are history and physical examination. History and physical examination are the first steps and the most effective tools for diagnosis. In order to determine the importance and power of physical examination, we decided to compare the results of physical examination in patients with distal forearm penetrating wounds with observations and findings during surgery. Methods: This descriptive-cross sectional study was performed on 64 patients with distal dorsal forearm SHARP INJURY, who were admitted to emergency ward. Findings in physical examination were compared with what was a definitive diagnosis or golden standard. Research morals were considered in all the stages of study. Findings: Based on the findings in physical examination, diagnostic values of physical examination were computed as follows: sensitivity=88%, specificity=40%, PLR=1/46, NLR=0/3, PPV=94%, NPV=22%, ACC=92%. Conclusion: Because of the high sensitivity of physical examination, it is a good method for screening. Physical examination has a higher value in ruling in extensor tendon sharp injuries rather than ruling them out.
