Chest Injuries: Physical Examination
LOOK : bruises, lacerations, distended neck veins,tracheal deviation, open chest wounds, lack of symmetrical chest rise, paradoxical chest movement, cyanosis.
FEEL : tenderness, bony crepitus, subcutaneous emphysema and an unstable chest wall segment
LISTEN : presence or absence of breath sounds, and bilateral symmetry of air movement
