Suppose that after examining tina, you were concerned she may have peritonitis. how would you have assessed tina to confirm your diagnosis?

To confirm if Tina has peritonitis, a physician should issue requests for blood and urine tests. Also, CT scan and exploratory surgery could confirm that Tina's peritoneum was inflamed. Drawing of fluid from Tina's abdomen could also confirm Tina's condition. These tests could prove if Tina has peritonitis.

I would have assessed tina to confirm my diagnosis by a rebound tenderness test to look for a positive Blumberg's sign and a heel jar test to look for a positive Markle sign.

Concept:
Blumberg's sign conjointly brought up as rebound tenderness, may be a clinical sign that's induced throughout physical examination of a patient's abdomen by a doctor or alternative healthcare supplier. It's indicative of peritonitis. It refers to pain upon removal of pressure instead of the application of pressure to the abdomen.

Conclusion:
The physician should issue requests for blood and urine tests. Also, CT scan and exploratory surgery could confirm that Tina's peritoneum was inflamed. Drawing of fluid from Tina's abdomen could also confirm Tina's condition. These tests could prove if Tina has peritonitis.
