Skin
- Cyanosis
- Pallor
- Secondary to anemia
- Ecchymoses,petechiae and purpura
- Secondary to thrombocytopenia
HEENT
- Evidence of trauma
- Pale conjunctiva
- Epistaxis
- Palatal petechiae
- Gingival or other oral cavity bleeding
Neck
No specific signs
Lungs
- Commonly normal lung sounds
Heart
- Commonly normal heart sounds
