Neurological assessment: Monitoring the patient's level of consciousness, pupil response, and motor functions. Fluid balance: Keeping track of fluid intake and output to detect any imbalances. Pain assessment: Regularly evaluating the patient's pain level and effectiveness of pain management strategies. Wound care: Monitoring any wounds for signs of infection or poor healing.
