The 10 pulse points or pressure points::
1. The external maxillary
2. The superficial temporal
3. The carotid
4. The brachial
5. The ulnar
6. The radial
7. The femoral
8. The popliteal
9. The posterior tibial
10. The dorsalis pedis
Most commonly used is #6. But EMT's will use #3 in an emergency.
There are 2 common locations for adults, and one for infants. Adults are palpated usually on the radial artery or carotid, though occasionally the brachial pulse is palpated if radial can not be obtained. Infants are strictly checked at only the brachial artery.
You can take pulse at lower end of radius bone. Here you palpate the radial artery. You can feel the carotid artery. You can feel the femoral artery at inguinal ligament.
Common site for obtaining a pulse rate is the radial pulse (wrist area).

Why do you have your pulse rate taken? Why do you have your pulse rate taken?
The breathing rate and pulse rate are related proportionally. If the breathing rate increases, so does the pulse rate. The pulse rate is an indication of the breathing rate.
an increase in pulse rate
running..
the pulse rate is usually equal to the heart rate
Your pulse rate is faster

It can be if you are active and your pulse rate is 60 that is good. If you are sitting down and your pulse rate is 60 then you could have heart problems. ----------------------------------- Most health experts would say you are "perfectly normal" as they classify a "normal" pulse rate as 60-80 BMP. I do not agree with the previous answer as scientists believe most persons' regular heart beat should be 60-80BMP and higher when excersizing. X
yes,most of the times both the pulse rate and heart rate will be equal.
A distal pulse should be the same rate as a femoral pulse, carotid pulse, brachial pulse, pedal pulse, or radial pulse. The strength of the pulse may be harder to feel the further away from the heart, but the rate should be the same. One heart, One Pulse Rate. The Normal heart rate/pulse in an adult is 60-100 beats per minute. Less of course, in the super healthy athlete.
