  1. Vitals should ALWAYS be documented regardless of whether they are normal or abnormal.
  2. See Something, Say Something
  3. Measuring vital signs can provide important information about the stat of critical body functions
  4. Abnormal vital signs will be flagged by a red exclamation point in EPIC.
  5. Febrile/Pyrexia-Fever usually over 100.4F
  6. Systolic: the blood pressure when heart is contracting
  7. Diastolic: the blood pressure when the heart is resting between beats
  8. Orthostatic hypotension: a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing from a seated or lying down position
  9. Hypotension: low blood pressure
  10. What can YOU do today to improve our teamwork even more?
  11. A full set of vital signs includes TEMPERATURE, BP, PULSE, O2 saturation, and RESPIRATORY RATE
  12. Heart rate and pulse are used interchangeably. Normal resting heart rate for those over 12 years of age is between 60-100 beats per minute.
  13. A person who is uncomfortable with plan or care of patient needs to escalate with ARCC.
  14. We will use MAGNETS placed on RIGHT side of door frame to alert provider of abnormal vitals. (Magnets on order)
  15. Rational for not obtaining vital signs MUST be documented in EPIC under comments in the vitals section.
  16. Free!
  17. All vital signs now show up automatically on the left side of the screen in EPIC for ease of viewing.
  18. Adult BP Normal: less than 120/80
  19. Abnormal vital signs may indicate the need for emergency treatment.
  20. Hypertension: high blood pressure, when the force of the blood against the arteries is too high
  21. Saturation of peripheral oxygen is known as Sp02 with normal levels generally between 95-99%.
  22. It is important for clinical staff to know the normal vital sign ranges based on patients' age, height, weight and gender.
  23. Normal respiration or (breaths/minute) for >12 years is 12-20
  24. Be sure to document in EPIC that escalation of abnormal vitals occurred by adding a comment next to the abnormal VS.
