inspection

what you see (rash, lumps, bumps)

palpation

what you feel (palpating for pulses, tenderness, crepitus, bumps, masses)

percussion

what you hear when tapping with fingers

auscultation

what you hear with stethoscope

Normal findings for inspection, palpation, percussion and auscultation?

symmetrical, smooth, pink, warm, equal bilaterally, orientated, even.

Name all the components in a set of vital signs, including the expected normal findings?

-Temp: 36-38 celcius
-Pulse: 60-100
-Respirations: 12-20
-BP: 90-120/60-80
-02 sat: 95-100%

What are the components to consider when taking a blood pressure?

, Age, sex, ethnocultural considerations, diurnal rhythm, weight, exercise, emotions, stress, cuff size,
placement, baseline

-Systolic pressure: max pressure felt on the artery during left ventricle contraction
-Diastolic pressure: elastic recoil, or resting, pressure that the blood exerts constantly between each
contraction
-Baseline: Where you stop feeling the pulse when inflating the blood pressure cuff and then you add
30mmhg

Explain the process and how to document a pulse?

- use pads of first 3 fingers and palpate at the flexor of the radial or brachial and count for 30
seconds (if regular) and multiply by 2. if UNREGULAR count for 1 full minute
-60, strong and regular.
