According to the video, pediatric evaluation is key to detecting developmental disorders and diseases at early stages. This video demonstrates the assessment of cranial nerves, which allows for the identification of neurological dysfunctions. Observing gait helps detect musculoskeletal or neurological problems. Inspection and mobility of the extremities reveals structural or muscle tone abnormalities. Thoracic auscultation is essential for diagnosing cardiac or respiratory conditions. Abdominal palpation identifies masses, pain, or visceromegaly. Evaluating the chest helps detect deformities and respiratory problems. Observing the child's general condition provides information about their nutrition and possible warning signs. Reflexes allow for the assessment of neurological maturation, especially in infants. Finally, good communication with the child will facilitate the assessment of their psychosocial and language development.
