Which vital sign is typically NOT assessed during a secondary assessment?

During a secondary assessment, the primary focus is on a thorough evaluation of non-life-threatening injuries and conditions after addressing immediate life threats. Vital signs such as blood pressure, pulse rate, and respiratory rate are routine components of this assessment, as they provide essential information about the victim's physiological status and help identify any developing issues.

Skin turgor, while valuable in assessing hydration status, is not classified as a vital sign in the same context. It is often evaluated in specific situations, such as assessing for dehydration, but it does not provide immediate life-signifying information like the other three vital signs. Therefore, skin turgor is typically not assessed as part of standard vital sign checks during a secondary assessment in emergency care.
