Vital Signs: Know Your Numbers
Your heart rate, breathing or respiratory rate, blood pressure, and temperature are known as your vital signs. Measuring your vital signs helps your healthcare provider assess your basic bodily functions.
Valley Children's now offers a new two-way texting feature that makes it even easier to keep track of upcoming appointments and other important alerts on health information about you or your child.
