Later, a nurse or a medical assistant calls the patient for the examination. Usually the patient is weighed by the nurse or the assistant, and might be requested for a urine sample (if required), blood pressure check, and temperature. The scale is often located at the nurse section but vital signs are taken in the examiner room and this is where the patient is inquired about the reason of the visit. The patient might be asked also about any changes in his / her chronic condition or about any new taken medications.
