After you detect a widened pulse pressure, assess for signs and symptoms of heart failure, such as crackles, dyspnea, and jugular vein distention. Also check for changes in skin temperature and color, strength of peripheral pulses, and LOC. Auscultate the heart for murmurs. Check for peripheral edema.
