Clinical Observation

Clinical observation refers to the careful monitoring and assessment of a patient's condition by healthcare professionals during medical treatment. This process involves noting symptoms, behaviors, and responses to care, often through physical examinations or diagnostic tests. The goal is to gather important information that can help diagnose a health issue, evaluate progress, or determine the effectiveness of treatment. Effective clinical observation is critical for making informed decisions about a patient's care and ensuring their health and safety throughout the treatment process.
