What else can I help you with?
How many seconds should you count the radial pulse?
15 seconds (and then multiply by four, to obtain the pulse rate).
How many seconds should you check for breathing?
It's either they have a pulse or they don't. It's not going to magically appear in the next three minutes. So about 10 seconds, AT THE MOST, a pulse should be assessed and if there isn't any present at the carotid artery (at the neck) then CPR and ventilations should be started immediately. In a critical emergency where someone isn't breathing or doesn't have a pulse, there is NO time for TIME! Actions must be made quick but you've got to be sure of your final decision. It's apart of EMS.
The pulse is taken for how many seconds before multiplying by ten is it for 3 seconds or is it for 6 seconds or is it 10 seconds or is it none of the above?
If you are trying to find your pulse per minute you would take your pulse for 6 seconds and then multiply it by 10. You could also take your pulse for 10 seconds and multiply it by 6
Drivers should check their mirrors every how many seconds?
About every 10 to 20 seconds
How many times should you check your rearview mirriors?

How do you calculate wrist pulse?
To get the pulse from the wrist (radial pulse) you county how many pulses you feel within the full 60 seconds and that will be the beats per minute. If they have a regular heart beat then you can count for 30 seconds and times that by two, or count for 15 seconds and times that by 4.
How many times should you check your mirrors when driving?
Every 5 to 7 seconds.
How do you calculate a persons pulse rate?
To get your pulse rate fing on spot where your can feel your pulse, I think on your neck is the best, then put your fingers on it and count how many beats you get in fifteen seconds then multiply by 4 and that's how you get your average pulse rate.
Why do you check your pulse?

How many seconds Does It Take To Check The Pulse?
It's beats per minute but most health care pros just do it for 30 secs and multiply by 2 or for 15 secs minimum and multiply by 4.
Kari checked her pluse and counted 21 beats in 15 seconds so how many BEATSwill be there in 30 seconds?
Seriously? 30/15=2 21x2=42... but the pulse is the number of beats in a minute so it would be 42x2 and thus her pulse would be 84.
Why check carotid pulse in CPR?
When people go into cardiac arrest, their body usually cuts off most circulation to their extremities to keep the core of their body alive. So, a patient could have a very weak or absent radial pulse but they may still have a carotid pulse. it is also used to compare the radial pulse to the carotid pulse. You should check for a carotid pulse every few minutes, at the same time check for breathing, coughing, and moving. Don't check it more often than that as stopping chest compressions can waste precious time. Continue CPR if there is no breathing or pulse, ect.
