The blood pressure measurement of 112/36 is unusual and potentially concerning. The systolic value (112) is within a normal range, but the diastolic value (36) is significantly lower than the typical range for adults, which is usually around 60-80 mmHg. A diastolic pressure this low could indicate an issue with cardiac function or peripheral resistance and should be reported to a nurse immediately for further evaluation.The other measurements—pulse of 98 beats per minute, respirations of 18 breaths per minute, and pulse oximetry of 100%—are within normal ranges for most individuals.
