What is the Correct Technique for Measuring Vital Signs?
Accurate measurement of vital signs is critical. For blood pressure, use a calibrated sphygmomanometer and stethoscope, ensuring the cuff is at heart level and the patient is relaxed. For heart rate, count pulsations for 30 seconds and multiply by two. Measure respiratory rate by observing chest movements. Use a digital thermometer to accurately measure body temperature.
