How often should a pediatric physical examination be conducted?
The frequency of pediatric physical examinations varies based on the child’s age. Newborns typically require examinations at 1 week, and then at 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 months. After the first year, exams are usually recommended at 15, 18, and 24 months, followed by annual check-ups from the age of 3 years onwards. However, the exact schedule may vary depending on individual health needs and guidelines from healthcare authorities.
