You are getting it wrong,
If you are saying a process, then follow steps given by 'Smoofy' (just replace sleep with you desired process, like oracle or any application process or cluster process anything).
But, from above email you are requesting monitoring a process ID, a process can hold many process ID's, so going with Process ID ain't a good thing, it can be gone or changed when the process is complete or crashed or killed.
Ex: you are saying pid 176383, say for now sshd is using that process ID (a user logged'in and a process ID is generated for that ssh connection). If you go with that and monitor that process ID, after the user is logged off, the ID is either gone or after some time taken by another process and your judgement will go wrong.
Hope this helps.

ptree(1) ptree(1)
NAME
ptree - print process trees
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/ptree [-a] [-c] [-z zone] [pid | user] ...
ptree prints the process trees containing the specified pids or users, with child processes indented from their respective parent pro-
cesses. An argument of all digits is taken to be a process-id, otherwise it is assumed to be a user login name. The default is all pro-
cesses.
The following options are supported:
-a All. Print all processes, including children of process 0.
-c Contracts. Print process contract memberships in addition to parent-child relationships. See process(4). This option
implies the -a option.
-z zone Zones. Print only processes in the specified zone. Each zone ID can be specified as either a zone name or a numerical zone
ID.
This option is only useful when executed in the global zone.
The following operands are supported:
pid Process-id or a list of process-ids. ptree also accepts /proc/nnn as a process-id, so the shell expansion /proc/* can be
used to specify all processes in the system.
user Username or list of usernames. Processes whose effective user IDs match those given are displayed.
Example 1: Using ptree
The following example prints the process tree (including children of process 0) for processes which match the command name ssh:
$ ptree -a `pgrep ssh`
1 /sbin/init
100909 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
569150 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
569157 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
569159 -ksh
569171 bash
569173 /bin/ksh
569193 bash
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful operation.
non-zero An error has occurred.
/proc/* process files
