Nurses have a significant role in the measurement and interpretation of cranial metrics. They are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the measurements, maintaining consistency in the technique, and tracking changes over time. They also play a key role in educating parents and caregivers about the importance of regular monitoring and potential implications of any abnormalities.
In addition to conducting the measurements, nurses collaborate with other healthcare professionals to develop a comprehensive care plan for patients with abnormal cranial measurements, ensuring timely interventions and follow-up care.
