Exercise 25

A 30-year-old patient complains of ascending flaccid paralysis that began with tingling in the toes and muscle weakness. He had just recovered from a viral flu. This individual presented to the emergency department after the leg weakness became so profound that he could barely walk, and now he notices his arms weakening. Loss of reflexes was also noted.
What vital signs must you monitor?
