What do doctors use to a listen person's heart rate?
A doctor can measure a person's heart rate by putting electrodes on the chest. This is called a electrocardiograph. A person's heart rate can also be taken by their pulse.
How do you figure out your resting heart rate?
The heart rate and pulse rate are 2 different assessments. The heart rate can be obtained by putting the stethoscope on the heart to count the apical heart rate. That area is up under the breast tissue, roughly right below and slightly left of the nipple line. A pulse can be obtained at the radial site (wrist, thumb side), at the carotids (each side of the neck), the bradial (upper arm), the femoral (either side at the groin), the politeal (behind the knee), and pedal pulses (tops of each foot).
Does the pulse of the neck or wrist beat at the same time as the heart?
I just checked :) and it seems that my neck pulse comes slightly before my arm pulse. In my mind at least, that makes sense for two reasons physically. The arteries in the wrist are farther from the heart than the neck and they are much smaller in the wrist. It also makes sense from a design perspective. It would only be fair that your brain gets the blood flow before the hand.
How can i Calculate heart rate from R-R interval?
heart rate in beats-per-minute can be calculated by 60 (number of seconds in a minute) divided by the average R-R inteval. heart rate = 60 / R-R interval Note: R-R interval needs to be converted into seconds.
How do you take a pulse?
You count your heartbeats during 1 minute, normally by feeling on the side of your neck.You take someone's pulse by putting a finger to the neck artery (carotid) or the wrist (side closest to thumb). It is important that you use a finger for this and not your thumb so that you don't end up taking your own pulse. Links can be found below for more informationIf time is of the essence, count for 15 seconds and multiply by four, or 30 seconds and multiply by two. One can also use the femoral arteries to the sides of the groin. Or in cases of infants, the brachial artery on the medial (inside) part of the bicep is used.

Procedures on how to measure pulse rate?
You put your left index finger and middle finger together to the left side of your neck...just under the jaw until you can feel your heart beat. Move closer to your ear until you can feel a steady beat. Get a watch or clock...and look at the second hand. When the second hand gets to 12, start counting your heart beats in your neck until the second hand gets to 15 seconds or to the 3 on the clock. Take the number of heart beats you counted in thouse 15 seconds, and multiply that number by 4. That should be your heart beat! Good Luck!Your heart rate is normally between 60 - 100 times per minuet. You could also buy a heart rate monitor which costs between $20 - $200

What is pulse?
Your pulse indicates how many times per minute your heart beats. It's your heart rate, and is one of your vital signs. You can feel your pulse on your wrist below your thumb and also on the side of your neck. == Pulse is the rhythmical throbbing of arteries and veins produced by the regular contractions of the heart, especially as palpated at the wrist or in the neck. Here is a general standard of pulse rate (PR). Resting Pulse Rate PR < 40 BMP - Below healthy resting heart rates. PR 40-60 BPM - Resting heart rate for sleeping. PR 60-100 BPM - Healthy adult resting heartrate. PR 100 BPM - 220 BPM - Acceptable if measured during exercise. Not acceptable if resting heartrate. PR > 220 BPM - Abnormally high heart rate.
What is a pulse?
The pulse rate is a measuring of your heartbeat and is counted every time it beats. If I had a pulse rate of 56 beats per minute it would be written like this; 56bpm.
