Monitor vital signs continuously: This is crucial to detect any further changes in heart rate or blood pressure, especially given the client’s history of symptomatic bradycardia and recent hypotensive episode following vancomycin administration. Echocardiogram: This is appropriate post-pacemaker insertion to assess cardiac function and ensure the pacemaker is functioning properly.
