Neck
- No masses
Cardiovascular system
- Regular rate and rhythm
- Normal S1, S2
- No murmurs, rubs, or gallops
Lungs
Findings consistent with parenchymal consolidation such as[2]
- Dullness to percussion
- Increased fremitus
- Signs of pleura involvement such as pleuritic rub.
Abdominal
- Abdomen soft and non-distended with no scars or striations
