Abstract: Percussion is one of the four clinical means of examination to which a doctor has to resort at the bedside, the others being inspection, palpation and auscultation. Whilst it is relatively unimportant in the examination of the abdomen, it is more important when examining the heart, although even here one cannot be too sure of the deductions arrived at. Whilst in examining the respiratory system, percussion is one of the most important, if not the most important, method of examination.
