To take someone's pulse, place your index and middle fingers on the person's wrist, just below the base of the thumb, or on the side of the neck where the carotid artery is located. Press gently until you feel the heartbeat. Count the beats for 30 seconds and then multiply by two to get the beats per minute. It's best to measure the pulse when the person is at rest for accurate results.

You can check your pulse rate with a gadget or simply with counting. If you want to check your pulse rate with a machine, check Pulse rate monitors.
