98.6 F.
,what is the normal range for adult temperature (rectal)
99.5 F.
what is the normal range for adult temperature (axillary)
97.7 F.
pyrexia
fever
afebrile
without fever
hyperpyrexia/hyperthermia
very high fever (103-105.8 F. or above)
hypothermia
low body temperature (95 F. or lower)
factors affecting temperature
,developmental level, environment, sex, exercise, emotions/stress/hormones, circadian rhythm
when should you not use the oral method of obtaining a client's temperature
if the patient has a problem with their mouth or if their mouth is in use by medical equipment
what is the normal range for adult pulse
60-100 bpm; strong, regular
systole
peak of the wave; contraction of the heart
diastole
trough of the wave; resting phase of heart
stroke volume
the amount of blood ejected from the heart in one contraction.
Cardiac Output (CO)
total quantity of blood pumped per minute
, factors affecting pulse
exercise, temperature, acute pain, emotions, meds, hemorrhage, postural changes, pulmonary
conditions
what is something to consider about older adult's pulse?
it may take longer for the HR to rise. heart sounds may also sometimes be muffled due to an
increase in air space in the lungs
what is something to consider about older adult's temperature?
it runs low
when should you take the apical pulse
when the radial pulse is irregular, if a patient is taking cardiac meds, or in assessment of infants
to children up to 3 years old
what is the normal range for adult blood pressure
120/80
peripheral resistance
arterial and capillary resistance to blood flow as a result of friction between blood and the
vessel walls
