well the heart pumps the blood at the same time, so you can feel it at the same time no matter where you check it, under your knee, your wrist, on the joint of your arm, and your neck.
on your wrist or neck. put your index and middle finger on the underside of your wrist or same two fingers on the side/front of your neck.
Your wrist and the side of your neck.
The pulse beats the same at any point on the body- you only have one heart to pump blood. But if you are having sex without using birth control you WILL get pregnant.
You can feel on your wrist on the same side as you thumb, or you can feel on you neck to the right or left of your Adams apple. Count for one full minute.
If you're checking your own pulse, you can check either wrist, where you might see the throbbing of the pulse, or either side of your neck, using the minute hand of your watch, for a minute. IF you are checking someone else's pulse, the same principles apply as use above. Just be careful not to use your thumb to check wrist pulses or you might actually be counting your own.
Heart rate is usually recorded in beats per minute. So find your pulse either in your wrist or your neck and count. If you don't want to count for the full minute, count for 15 seconds and multiply by 4.
A little bit of training and practice is required but to take a pulse you can use one or two fingers on the wrist or on the neck to feel the heart beat. Generally you take a pulse for 15 seconds and multiply the number by 4 to determine the number of heart bets someone has in 1 minute. When reporting pulse during first aid you may also want to indicate if the pule was strong/weak, or erratic.
Put your hand on tyhe biucep with your fingers medial to the arm. Fold your fingertips inward and press on the bone between the bicep and tricep nuscles. It's almost likestanding on a hosepipe - you will actually feel the brachial artery, and you should be able to pick up the pulse.
checking both radial pulses at the same time
Yes; the pulse rate should be approximately the same. However the pressure will vary as the artery in your neck is larger than the one in your arm. The artery in your neck is called the carotid artery. Therefore the neck pulse is called the carotid pulse. The one at the wrist is called the radial artery thus giving it the name, radial pulse. The average pulse for an adult is 65-70 beats per minute. For a child, 80-90 and 100-120 for an infant.
Same place you would find a pulse on anyone else. Side of neck, wrist, behind the knee, on the ankle...
There's actually two pulses in your wrist. The most commonly used and easiest to find is your radial pulse. The radial pulse can be found by starting at your thumb and moving down to your wrist. Your ulnar pulse is harder to find and is found on the opposite side by tracing down your pinkie finger.
