“…The benefits to patient care, as a result of nurses’ performance of physical assessment, are summarized as follows: (i) enhancement of effective communication (Yamauchi, 1997); (ii) recognition of changes in the patient’s condition (Gender, 1983; Barrows, 1985; Lont, 1992; Wilson & Lillibridge, 1995); (iii) enhancement of triage skills (George, 1984); (iv) early establishment of a nurse–client relationship (Bates & Lynaugh, 1973); (v) promotion of nursing decision‐making and management (Lynaugh & Bates, 1974; Hagopian et al , 1982); (vi) assistance to patients in overcoming problems (Turnbull, 1976; Gender, 1983); and (vii) increased job satisfaction (Gender, 1983).…”

The purpose of this study was to obtain baseline data of Japanese nurses' knowledge, skills and attitudes concerning physical assessment. The design of the study was survey research, using a self-administered questionnaire. Nurses with more experience were more knowledgeable about almost all physical assessment skills. Fourteen of the physical assessment skills were used more often by respondents with more experience in nursing practise. Ten of the physical assessment skills were cited as more difficult to carry out by respondents with less experience in nursing. The group with more clinical practise experience had more knowledge of physical assessment skills, used the skills more frequently and had less difficulty in using them. The results of this study indicated that Japanese nurses learn physical assessment skills 'on the job'.
