Which blood vessel is the pulse taken?
Subclavian artey becomes axillary artery. Axillary artery becomes brachial artery. Brachial artery divides into radial and ulnar branches. You palpate radial artery at distal end of radius bone. So you feel a pulse betwwen radius and your fingers. So it is better felt than ulnar artery.
