The nurse should monitor for vital signs like blood pressure and heart rate when dealing with pheochromocytoma patients.
A pheochromocytoma is a rare, usually noncancerous (benign) tumour that develops in an adrenal gland. There are two adrenal glands in our body. They are located at the top of each kidney. The adrenal glands are part of the body's hormone-producing (endocrine) system. The endocrine system also includes the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, pancreas, ovaries (in females) and testicles (in males).
Symptoms of pheochromocytoma include high blood pressure, heavy sweating and rapid heartbeat. Although high blood pressure is a primary sign of pheochromocytoma, most people who have high blood pressure don't have an adrenal tumour.
