We have discussed many parts of patient assessment. While taking a patient history involves a lot of questions, we also want objective measurements of what is happening to the patient, measurements of the patient’s life. We will look at a few key vital signs commonly taken in patient care.

Basic Vital Signs

These are the basics that can be measured by any level of care giver and will be measured for almost every patient. While one team member focuses on asking patient assessment questions, you can work to respectfully get these vital signs.

Additional Vital Signs

Depending on the situation, we may choose to take additional vitals. We tend to expect these to be skills provided at the ambulance level, not something that should be expected of someone giving regular first aid.

Please remember we treat the patient not the devices, meaning use vital signs as a rough guide not an absolute truth. Think of vitals signs as puzzle pieces that when put together with the other signs and symptoms gives us a picture of the patient's situation. A single puzzle piece (or vital sign) by itself has little to no meaning.
