Vital signs provide important health information about a patient. The four main vital signs are body temperature, pulse rate, respiration rate, and blood pressure. Taking vital signs can help detect changes in a patient's condition and determine if medical intervention is needed. Normal ranges are 97.8-99F for temperature, 60-100 beats per minute for pulse, 12-16 breaths per minute for respiration, and below 120/80 mmHg for blood pressure. Factors like illness, medications, and environment can cause vital signs to fall outside normal ranges.
Vital signs
The four main vital signs routinely monitored by medical professionals and health care providers include the following:
Body temperature.
Pulse rate.
Respiration rate (rate of breathing)
Blood pressure
Vital signs are key medical measurements that indicate the status of vital body functions. The four main vital signs routinely monitored are body temperature, pulse rate, respiration rate, and blood pressure. Body temperature is normally between 97.8-99F. Pulse rate measures heart rate and is usually 60-100 beats per minute. Respiration rate counts breaths per minute and is typically 12-16 breaths. Blood pressure includes systolic and diastolic measurements. Vital signs provide important health information and are useful for detecting medical issues.
Vital signs include temperature, pulse, respiration, blood pressure, and pain. Procedures for accurately assessing each vital sign are described along with common factors that can influence readings. Key equipment for taking vital signs includes a thermometer, stethoscope, sphygmomanometer, watch, and recording sheet. Vital signs are usually taken on admission, with changes in condition, before/after certain medications or procedures, and according to hospital policy in order to monitor a patient's health status and detect any deviations from normal ranges.
This document discusses vital signs and pulse. It defines pulse as the expansion and recoil of arteries in response to heart pumping. Normal pulse is 60-100 beats/minute. Pulse is checked to assess heart rate, rhythm, and strength. Factors like age, sex, activity level can affect pulse. Common pulse sites include radial, carotid, apical. Proper technique is used to accurately count pulse for one minute.

This document provides guidelines for assessing various vital signs including body temperature, pulse rate, respiration rate, and blood pressure. It discusses appropriate techniques for measuring each vital sign, normal ranges, factors that influence the measurements, and guidelines for documentation. The key vital signs covered are temperature (measured orally, rectally, axillary, or tympanically), pulse (measured at radial or apical sites), and respiration (assessed by chest or abdominal movement and counted for a full minute).
Vital signs are measurements that indicate life, including heart rate, breathing rate, temperature, and blood pressure. They can be observed and monitored to assess a person's health status. Normal vital signs can vary by age, sex, weight, exercise, and other factors. Temperature is usually measured orally and normal temperature ranges are 98.6°F (37°C) orally and slightly higher in other areas. Blood pressure has a normal range of 120/80 and is measured using a sphygmomanometer and cuff on the upper arm. Respiration rate is counted by observing rises and falls of the chest and has a normal range between 12-20 breaths per minute.
Vital signs including temperature, pulse, respiration, and blood pressure are important indicators of a client's physiological health. Temperature is regulated by the hypothalamus and can be taken orally, rectally, via the ear or axilla. Normal pulse rate is 60-100 beats per minute and provides information about rhythm and volume. Respiration is assessed by counting breaths over one minute. Normal respiration is 16-20 breaths per minute. Blood pressure includes systolic and diastolic measurements and indicates force of blood flow. Regular monitoring of these vital signs helps identify health issues and monitor a client's condition over time.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
