Which of the following should be included in an initial assessment?

  1. Blood pressure measurement

  2. Focused physical examination

  3. Obtaining a patient history

  4. Scene size-up

The correct answer is: Blood pressure measurement

Blood pressure measurement should be included in an initial assessment because it provides valuable information about the patient's cardiovascular status. Blood pressure can indicate conditions such as shock, dehydration, or other medical emergencies. While obtaining a patient history, conducting a focused physical examination, and performing a scene size-up are important components of patient care, blood pressure measurement is crucial in determining the patient's overall condition in the initial assessment.
