Memantau Pasien Di Rumah Sakit

Kadang-kadang, kesehatan seorang pasien di rumah sakit mungkin memburuk secara tiba-tiba
(ini disebut menjadi sakit akut). Ada saat-saat tertentu ketika ini lebih mungkin, misalnya setelah
masuk darurat ke rumah sakit, setelah operasi dan setelah meninggalkan perawatan kritis.
Namun, hal itu dapat terjadi pada tahap apa pun di masa lalu. Ini meningkatkan risiko pasien
perlu tinggal lebih lama di rumah sakit, tidak pulih sepenuhnya atau sekarat.
Memantau pasien (memeriksa mereka dan kesehatan mereka) secara teratur saat mereka berada
di rumah sakit dan mengambil tindakan jika mereka menunjukkan tanda-tanda menjadi lebih

buruk dapat membantu menghindari masalah serius .

Tiba di bangsal atau di departemen darurat.
Ketika Anda pertama kali tiba di bangsal baik sebagai pasien baru atau dari area perawatan kritis
seperti unit perawatan intensif, profesional kesehatan harus:
 Ukur nadi Anda, tekanan darah dan suhu, seberapa cepat Anda bernapas, dan jumlah
oksigen dalam darah Anda
 Lihatlah seberapa waspada Anda dan apakah Anda sadar akan apa yang terjadi di sekitar
Anda
Anda juga harus mengukur tanda-tanda seksual ini jika Anda berada di unit gawat darurat dan
telah diputuskan bahwa Anda harus tinggal di rumah sakit.
Staf harus menulis rencana yang mana tanda vital Anda harus dipantau dan seberapa sering.
Rencana tersebut harus mempertimbangkan:
 Kenapa kamu di rumah sakit
 Penyakit lain atau masalah kesehatan yang Anda miliki
  Apa yang Anda sepakati tentang perawatan Anda
