| Abstract (English): | The article focuses on the importance of the physical examination and medical history in medical practice, especially in pediatrics, and reflects on their apparent decline in the face of increased use of diagnostic technologies. It highlights that the physical examination, together with the clinical history, allows for the diagnosis of approximately 60% of diseases without the need for additional tests, and that its omission can increase clinical errors. Furthermore, it emphasizes the therapeutic and relational value of the physical examination in the doctor-patient interaction, as well as the need to promote its teaching and practice, even in the context of new technologies such as pediatric point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). Finally, it points out that despite its limitations, the physical examination continues to be valued by patients and is fundamental for comprehensive and humanized medical care.
