Polangco, Sweet Glyca S. 1BSN-A13 Like any other skill, taking vital signs requires time and practice. So, the first step is to understand the proper techniques and procedures. The first step in taking the pulse rate is to wash your hands thoroughly. Ensure that your patient is relaxed before you begin. Use the radial artery to find their pulse. You can find it on the inside of their wrist (closest to their thumb). Place your first and second fingertips not your thumb in a firm yet gentle manner on the patient’s wrist. Look at a clock or watch and wait for the second hand to hit the 12. Start counting the beats of their pulse. Count the patient’s pulse for 60 seconds or until the second-hand returns to the 12. While counting, remember not to watch the clock constantly but instead concentrate on your patient’s pulse beats. in taking respiration rate first is to Put your fingers on the patient’s wrist (either side is fine). Count their breaths for one minute. Keep in mind that an inhale plus an exhale equals one respiration. Document their respiration rate. Include any relevant observations, such as wheezing, agitation, etc. In taking Temperature encase the thermometer mouth tip with a sanitary plastic shield. Press the button to turn on the thermometer. Put the thermometer under your patient’s tongue and ask them to keep their mouth closed. Remove the thermometer after it beeps to signal completion. Record their temperature, including necessary information like the date, time, and method used. Always clean and sterilize the thermometer. In taking the blood pressure first is to Disinfect the stethoscope. Ensure that the blood pressure monitor is working correctly. Place your fingers on the underside of the patient’s elbow to locate their pulse (referred to as the brachial pulse). Wrap the deflated cuff snugly around the patient’s upper arm. This should be at least one inch above where you detected the brachial pulse. Place the stethoscope earpieces in your ears and put the diaphragm (disk) over the brachial pulse. Twist the knob on the air pump clockwise to close the valve. Pump air and inflate the cuff until the dial pointer hits 170. Turn the knob on the air pump counterclockwise so that you can open the valve to deflate the cuff. When the dial pointer falls, closely observe the number and listen for a thumping sound. Record the number displayed as the first thump is heard (systolic pressure). Record the number displayed as the last thump is heard (diastolic pressure). Deflate and remove the cuff from the patient. Document these results and include any unusual observations. b. A 65-year-old patient came to the ER to have her vital signs assessed. After taking the vital signs, all results were at a normal level. So why is it important to know the concept of functional assessment?

In taking vital signs, is it necessary to note the full mental status of the patient? Why is there a need to systematically check emotional and cognitive functioning? answer: this is to determine the patient’s general awareness and responsiveness as they include some of the brain's core functions such as thinking, reading, learning, retaining information, and paying attention, and are used to solve problems, remember tasks, and make decisions. e.

To recap, normal vital sign ranges for average healthy adults (at rest) are: Blood pressure: 90/60 mm Hg to 120/80 mm Hg. Breathing: 12 to 18 breaths per minute. B.A functional assessment process is necessary to help understand an individual's behaviour of concern.
