Identify your vital signs and describe their normal values
Vital signs are measurements of physiological functioning— specifically temperature, blood pressure, pulse rate, and respiration rate. The normal values are as follows:
• Temperature: 98.9 degrees Fahrenheit in the morning and 99.9 degrees Fahrenheit later in the day is upper limit of the normal oral temperature for people 40 years old or younger.
• Blood pressure: Below 120 (systolic) and below 80 (diastolic). You can measure your own blood pressure if you want to invest in blood pressure equipment. Check your local drugstore to purchase a blood pressure cuff or digital blood pressure monitor.
• Pulse rate: 72 beats per minute. Take your pulse rate at your wrist or at the carotid artery in your neck.
• Respiration rate: 15-20 breaths per minute.
