Vital signs are a group of objective measurements that provide information about a person’s basic body functions. They include body temperature, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure. These measurements are often taken by healthcare professionals to assess a person’s overall health status and to help diagnose and monitor various medical conditions.

A functional assessment process is necessary to help understand an individual's behavior of concern. It is essential to identify appropriate and helpful teaching strategies and interventions that will support the individual in achieving the quality of life they desire.

Clinical observation and inspection are fundamental to the practice of medicine. They are central aspects of the physical examination as they lead to accurate diagnoses and treatment.

The mental status examination can help distinguish between mood disorders, thought disorders, and cognitive impairment, and it can guide appropriate diagnostic testing and referral to a psychiatrist or other mental health professional.

I’ve learned that vital signs can help healthcare professionals identify potential health problems or monitor a patient's condition over time. Changes in vital signs may indicate a range of conditions, from minor illnesses to life-threatening emergencies, and can help guide the diagnosis, treatment, and management of a patient's care. Regularly monitoring vital signs can help ensure patient safety and improve overall healthcare outcomes.

a. Temperature, respiration rate, pulse, blood pressure, and, when necessary, blood oxygen saturation are all considered vital signs. These figures offer crucial information—hence the word "vital"—about the state of health of a patient. They can specifically detect the presence of a serious medical issue. are a quick way to gauge the severity of a condition and how effectively the body is handling the resulting physiological stress. The patient is more ill the more abnormal the vital signs are. are indicators of chronic illness conditions (e.g. hypertension is defined as chronically elevated blood pressure).

b. It is crucial to evaluate functional health since the information gathered may reveal a way to promote health and prevent illness or offer relief or support. It is crucial to take into account wider aspects of health as a holistic and comprehensive assessment because health goes beyond the absence of sickness.

c. Medical practice is fundamentally based on clinical observation and examination. They are essential components of the physical exam because they result in precise diagnoses and interventions. Although the phrases "observation" and "inspection" are sometimes used synonymously, inspection primarily refers to what we can see on the body's surface, while "observation" is a broader term that refers to the deliberate use of our senses to gather physical and behavioral information. The hue of the skin is something that is instantly discernible while assessing a patient. This can offer crucial hints to the underlying medical issue and point the practitioner in the direction of a diagnosis.

d. The mental status examination is a methodical evaluation of the patient's cognitive and behavioral abilities. It covers descriptions of the patient's outward appearance and general behavior, level of awareness and alertness, motor and linguistic activity, mood and affect, thought and perception, attitude and insight, the examiner's reaction, and, lastly, higher cognitive capacities. The clinical relevance of certain cognitive abilities including attentiveness, language, memory, constructional ability, and abstract reasoning is highest.

e. I learned taking vital signs in advance because I am a volunteer in a health organization and in this video I learned few more things such as the importances.

A.
The procedure for taking the body's temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation level, or 02sat, is shown in the video, as well as the proper positioning of the tools used. the significance of taking vital signs, reminders for using it, and the range in which they should fall.

B.
A functional evaluation is important since it has an impact on how the subject conducts daily tasks. Vital signs will give the patient information about their health status, enabling them to make informed decisions about what to prevent and what to keep up with that will have an impact on their everyday activities.

C.
Is essential because it will enable nurses to choose a nursing solution that will accurately represent your vital signs and their wellness.

D.
The patient's entire mental status must be noted when taking vital signs in order to determine how and where to perform the patient's initial assessment. As you are already aware of the patient's mental condition, this will also assist the nurse in providing better nursing care.

E.
After seeing this clip, I gained knowledge about the right technique, the significance of obtaining vital signs, and their precautions and reminders. Since the patient's vital signs are a representation of their health, the nurse must obtain them accurately.

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? Does this measure how a person manages day-today activities?
answer: It is important to know the concept of functional assessment to aid in understanding a person's troubling behavior. In order to assist the person in obtaining the quality of life they seek, it is critical to discover appropriate and beneficial teaching tactics and interventions.

c. You are assigned to the stroke unit and monitor the patient's vital signs. Why is it
essential that you also need to observe the patient and infer health or dysfunction
during observation?
answer: it is important to observe the patient and infer health or dysfunction to lead to accurate diagnoses and treatment.

d. 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. What learnings did you ponder, and what insights did you gain after watching the
video?
answer: After watching the video I’ve learned the importance of taking vital signs in our daily lives and how is it useful in detecting or monitoring medical problems.
