Overview
On physical examination, a paient suffering from adult-onset Still's disease may appear fatigued, has a high grade fever (spiking fever), tachycardia, salmon colored maculopapular rash on trunk and/or extrmities, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, pleural and pericardial friction rub (due to underlying pleuritis and pericarditis).
Physical Examination
On physical examination, the following findings may be observed:[1][2][3][4]
Appearance of the patient
- Patient may appear fatigued
Vital signs
- High grade spiking fever (spike during evening time)[5]
- Tachycardia
- Pulsus paradoxus in case of pericardial tamponade
Skin
- Salmon colored maculopapular rash on trunk and extremities.[6]
HEENT
- Within normal limits
Neck
- Lymphadenopathy[7]
Lungs
- Pleural friction rub secondary to pleuritis[8]
- Rales and crackles due to pulmonary edema
Heart
- Percardial friction rub due to pericarditis[9]
Abdomen
- Hepatosplenomegaly[10]
