1. Vital Signs: Regularly checking vital signs such as blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature helps in assessing the patient's current health status. 2. Physical Assessments: Conducting thorough physical examinations to detect any changes in the patient's condition. 3. Patient Records: Keeping detailed and up-to-date patient records, including progress notes and charts. 4. Diagnostic Tests: Utilizing laboratory tests, imaging studies, and other diagnostic tools to gather more information. 5. Patient Feedback: Listening to the patient's complaints, concerns, and overall experience can provide valuable insights.
