depends on ur DD & what ur gng to write at first place ,do all related xm for ur 1st diagnosis ,like TIA -no need to do all DTR but if Stroke /MS/GBS we hv to do all DTR.
Visual acuity -if vision is a main complaint,in MS ,DM -its must
no resp complaint -at least 2 place both ant nd post ie total 4 places -just auscultation or check base of lung only if no time .
as i think,may be wrong ,more suggestions r welcome
