ABSTRACT
In actual medicine it has been minimized the importance of an integral physical exploration of the sick, due to lack of time, excess of work and/or abuse of auxiliary diagnostic methods intended to offer optimum results to the sick. The present paper alludes to the physical-physiological bases of the thorax physical exploration, demonstrating that the procedures performed during the physical exploration of the sick promote the pathophysiological correlation, support the diagnosis and improve patient-medical relation. From Von Auenbrugger to the original descriptions of great French and German clinicians, this paper is a meticulous contribution for a good medical practice.
