What conditions may cause the apical and radial pulse to be different from each other?
Please double check this but here is a shot Apical pulse will never be less than the radial pulse. A radial pulse rate less than the apical rate is an example of a pulse deficit, and can be the When_would_an_apical_pulse_be_less_then_radial_pulseof a heart murmur, but the opposite will never occur.
Can you have arithmia when your pulse rate is high?
Why do you have your pulse rate taken? Why do you have your pulse rate taken?
What is the normal tibial pulse rate?
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.
What is the pulse on your chest called?
It's called the apical pulse. For future reference: Radial pulse - at your wrist next to your thumb on both arms. Carotid pulse - at your neck. Apical pulse - at your chest. Brachial pulse - anticubital (opposite of the elbow side).
Which finger should you not use when taking pulse?
The thumb because it has a pulse of it's own.
What causes the pulse to occur?
The human pulse occurs as blood is pulsed throughout the body. The veins and arteries contract, causing the pulse to occur.
How does the sensation called the pulse occur?
it occurs by the regular contractions of the heart
Is a pulse rate between 34-56 normal in a male?
"normal" is 72 beats per minute, but pulse rates in the 50s are not uncommon in aerobically fit men. Pulse rates in the 30s are unusual but can occur in very fit men.
What conditions may cause the apical and radial pulse to be different from each other?
Please double check this but here is a shot Apical pulse will never be less than the radial pulse. A radial pulse rate less than the apical rate is an example of a pulse deficit, and can be the When_would_an_apical_pulse_be_less_then_radial_pulseof a heart murmur, but the opposite will never occur.
Which pulse occurs first radial or carotid?
The carotid will occur a fraction of a second before the radial, simply because of the distance travelled.
When do you check the apical pulse instead of radial pulse?
Apical pulse will never be less than the radial pulse. A radial pulse rate less than the apical rate is an example of a pulse deficit, and can be the result of a heart murmur, but the opposite will never occur.
Name of the thumb pulse?
The neck pulse is the corotid pulse; the wrist pulse is the radial pulse; the arm pulse is the brachial pulse. it seems that the pulses are named according to the artery palpated; therefore, your thumb pulse must be your princeps pollicis pulse. this is an educated guess.
What is a hamster pulse?
A hamster pulse is the pulse of a hamster.
Where is the radial pressure point?
The point of the radial pulse is located on the patient's 'thumb' side of their wrist. You locate the patient's radial artery (pulse pont) in the patient's wrist using your middle two or three fingers. You count the number of pulses that occur in eiher 30 seconds or 1 minute. NEVER use your thumb to take a pulse. You would then be feeling your OWN pulse.
What are the types of pulse modulation?
Pulse width mod, pulse amplitude mod, pulse position mod, pulse code mod.
Where can you found the 11 pulses?
Temporal, Radial, Dorsalis Pedis, Anterior Tibial, Apical pulse, Ulnar pulse, brachial pulse, Carotid pulse, Femoral pulse, Popliteal pulse, Posterior Tibialis pulse.
When you count your heart beat its called?
If by "count your heartbeat," you mean the counting of how many beats occur within a specific amount of time, then that is called "Pulse Rate."
