Assess first.
Treat second.
Belajar kumpul information secara sistematik, kenal safety concerns dan tukarkan findings kepada treatment objective — tanpa melompat kepada diagnosis.
5 Core Lessons
Objective Level 2: student boleh jawab “Adakah treatment sesuai, apa finding utama, dan apa langkah seterusnya?”
Client Interview
Complaint, location, duration, symptom character, pain scale, aggravating/relieving factors, history dan functional limitation.
Observation
Posture, symmetry, movement, guarding, swelling dan obvious limitation.
Basic Physical Assessment
ROM, active movement, functional movement, basic palpation dan left-right comparison.
Safety Screening & Red Flags
Contraindications, precautions, acute injury, red flags dan referral decisions.
Findings & Basic Clinical Reasoning
Compile findings → identify problem → treatment objective → treat, modify, defer atau refer.
No treatment decision before safety screening.
Assessment bukan proses mencari diagnosis. Ia proses memahami complaint, function, findings dan menentukan sama ada therapeutic treatment sesuai dan selamat.
