Hi everyone,for those who use a scoring system such as PADSS for endo pts, are you doing 2 vital sign checks on gastro pts if they return fully awake?

Hi Leslie,
in our endo-day surgery area, pts are scored using a modified aldrete score while in Endo.
After the pt is transfered from Endo to the Day Surgery area, the PADSS score is documented at least twice in the phase II recovery period.
