Abstract:
Throughout this project, the emphasis and research was centered on the importance of vital sign monitoring of patients. The importance of vital signs is emphasized due to the pivotal role played in indicating patient clinical status, and the wide range of information vital signs provide for clinical professionals. Research aspects that were addressed when looking into the protocol for post-operative vital sign monitoring were: a specific timing schedule, whose responsibility this is, and a possible way to implement timeliness in carrying this task out. The consequences of infrequent and inadequate vital signs were also a concern when looking at the vital sign protocol.
