§ Physical Exam Assistant · complaint-specific examsBuilt by emergency physicians

Documented like you examined, not like a template.

The Physical Exam Assistant writes the exam for you: type a brief summary, or let Ambient Scribing listen at the bedside. Either way, an appropriate exam is documented, detailed where the complaint demands it and concise everywhere else, without a template or macro in sight.

01Chart View
Exam beside the HPI

The exam drafts into the same view as the history and MDM, so the chart tells one consistent story.

02Clinical context
Matched to the complaint

Chest pain generates a detailed cardiovascular and pulmonary exam. Trauma gets a systematic survey. Pediatric cases get age-appropriate techniques.

03Progressive documentation
Updated as you go

Add findings as you evaluate (a murmur, a post-intubation status) and the exam updates instantly without redoing the rest.

01Focused by design

The exam you performed, in proper form.

Enter the presentation and any abnormal findings, and the assistant documents the relevant systems in depth and keeps the rest brief, with proper terminology, systematic organization, and the level of detail the case warrants.

  • Detailed exam of the systems that matter
  • Professional terminology and structure
  • Age-appropriate exams for pediatric patients
0template clicks · per exam
02No templates · no macros

Written for the patient, not from a macro.

Type one line, or let Ambient Scribing capture the encounter at the bedside, and an appropriate exam writes itself. Chest pain gets a detailed cardiovascular and pulmonary exam, trauma gets a systematic survey, pediatric cases get age-appropriate techniques. Nothing canned, nothing autofilled.

  • Written from a brief input, or from the room
  • Appropriate to the presentation, every time
  • No macros to build, click through, or maintain

Findings change. The note keeps up.

Tell it what changed in plain language (patient has a 3/6 systolic murmur at the LUSB, post-sedation and arousable to voice) and the exam updates in place. With Ambient Scribing, the exam generates automatically from the encounter, and you refine from there.

  • Natural-language updates, applied instantly
  • Auto-generated with Ambient Scribing
  • Every line editable before sign-off

palmER Physical Exam Assistant generating a focused exam

Pairs with the HPI Assistant and the MDM Assistant to write the full chart. In Patient Mode, the exam writes itself from the encounter; in Assistant Mode, you generate it on demand from a brief input.

§ Capabilities · 04 listedExam documentation AI · emergency medicine

What it documents, exactly.

01Capability

Focused to the complaint

The exam follows the chief complaint. No twelve-system stock exam where one or two systems were the point.

02Capability

Defensible without being padded

Documents what you would expect to be documented for the level of care and the differential, without inventing findings.

03Capability

Patient Mode-compatible

If you used Patient Mode, the exam is auto-generated from the encounter. You review and refine; you don't type from scratch.

04Capability

Works with your snippets

Your phrasings, for normal cardiac, normal respiratory, neuro by system, carry through.
