    Nursing education continues to teach physical assessment skills, but educators must focus on essential techniques for optimal patient outcomes. Competency in core skills remains crucial for clinical practice.

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Education
    • Clinical Skills
    • Healthcare Practice

    Background:

    • A decade ago, U.S. nurses used only 30 physical assessment techniques.
    • Nursing education faces pressure to prioritize essential knowledge and skills.
    • This study investigates changes in nursing education regarding physical assessment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine physical assessment skills taught in baccalaureate nursing programs.
    • To compare current skills with those from previous studies.
    • To assess the alignment between nursing education and clinical practice needs.

    Main Methods:

    • Cross-sectional, descriptive study design.
    • Focus on one baccalaureate nursing program in the midwestern U.S.
    • Analysis of physical assessment skills taught and used by nursing students.
