How Do Nurses Monitor Patient Responses to Treatments?
Nurses continuously monitor patients to evaluate the effectiveness of treatments and identify any adverse reactions. This includes:
Vital Signs: Regularly checking heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, and respiratory rate. Pain Assessment: Using pain scales to assess and document pain levels. Observation: Watching for physical and behavioral changes that may indicate improvement or deterioration. Feedback: Encouraging patients to report any unusual symptoms or concerns.
