- Change in Blood Pressure [Time frame: Baseline, through telemetry unit stay (approximately 1-3 days)]
- Change in Respiratory Rate [Time frame: Baseline, through telemetry unit stay (approximately 1-3 days)]
- Change in Oxygen Saturation Levels [Time frame: Baseline, through telemetry unit stay (approximately 1-3 days)]
- Change in ECG morphology [Time frame: Baseline, through telemetry unit stay (approximately 1-3 days)]
