Vital Signs (VS)

The Vital Signs (VS) domain is based on the Findings General Observation class. The VS domain is used to represent vital signs measurements, including (but not limited) to blood pressure, temperature, respiration, body surface area, body mass index (BMI), height, and weight

Example

This is an example of a CRF used to collect vital signs.

This is an example of the SDTM VS domain.

Rows 1-4, 6-7:	VSTPT and VSTPTNUM are populated because more than 1 measurement was taken at this visit.
Rows 2, 4-5, 7-9:	VSLOBXFL="Y" indicates that the observation was used as the last observation before exposure measurement.
Rows 10-11:	Show blood pressure observations obtained at visit 2.
Row 12:	Shows a value collected in one unit, but converted to selected standard unit.
Row 13:	Shows the proper use of the --STAT variable to indicate "NOT DONE" where a reason was collected when a test was not done.
