How did you organize your pediatric vital signs?

[studylol]

Hello friends,

Kid vitals change every year as they get older. I'm studying for my shelf exam and I am looking for advice to learn the vitals. Anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks!

I took the hit on that one. As well as developmental milestones 🙂. But I understand for a shelf you might want to at least try.

with pediatric vitals.. thanks for the reminder... Here's a table excerpt from an EM book, but not sure how to make it easy to remember, or what are some critical concepts to pull out of this...?

There aren't many critical concepts. They're just vitals anyway. I was just hoping somebody had an algorithm to know them because I don't want to refer to a chart all the time.

I understand why you made this confusion, but ACTUALLY you can make it into a chart, maybe having a photographic flashbulb-type image of it in your head might help.. not to mince straws, but this IS (known unknowns)... http://www.differencebetween.net/science/mathematics-statistics/difference-between-table-and-chart/

thank you for allowing me to use the phrase "known unknowns", perhaps, correctly... we will wait and see...
