Vital Signs Test

[aaakers27]

So tomorrow we check off on our vital signs. My partner and I are both confident in every area besides blood pressure. We are required to do a two step BP and can be within 2 numbers off of what our instructor gets. Any pointers on how to be more accurate or to be less stressed!!?

Thanks!

Thanks for the advice everyone! I passed!!!! The only thing I did wrong was forgetting to ask the patient if they smoked or consumed caffeine before taking the BP
