Vitals
I was a little nervous about today's clinic because I knew we were going to be taking each others vital signs. I have never done this before so it would be something new to me. We went over the normal ranges for blood pressure, pulse, and respiration. Then it was time to practice. It was hard to hear the pulse when doing the blood pressure but after comparing my results to the people in my pod mine were about the same. I was excited about that. I'm taking my blood pressure cuff and stethescope home so I can practice on everybody. We also went over another HHX treatment record. It is ALOT of information but I am starting to understand it a little better and am feeling more confident about the case study that we have to do. Next time I hope to feel comfortable enough to pass off my HHX PE. Everything is starting to come together now and everything goes hand in hand so I am feeling a little better about all the material we are covering.
