An Artery
A pulse is checked on an artery.
You cannot generally take a pulse from a vein.
Yes and no. They certainly sound like a pulse! But the pulse is a feeling of blood flow through a vein, whereas Korotkoff sounds are the sounds of turbulent blood flow through a constricted or partially occluded artery.
Carotid Artery, Radial Artery, Brachial Artery, Femoral Artery, Popliteal Artery, Posterior Tibial Artery, Dorsalis Pedis Artery. These are the main ones that are checked.
