That's an excellent question … what is it that makes us want to assign a 
measurement some kind of priority. This could be

- measurements commonly needed to make other decisions (weight for dosing, eGFR 
for adjustments and contraindications)
- lab measures relevant to surgical procedures (INR PT PTT platelets)

but it seems to me those could be achieved via panels.

Height, weight, BP, heart rate have a certain appeal as being directly-measured 
in the praxis, but these too could be spotlighted in a panel.
