Also known as pulse rate

In medicine, pulse is the rhythmic expansion and contraction of an artery in response to the cardiac cycle (heartbeat). The pulse may be felt (palpated) in any place that allows an artery to be compressed near the surface of the body, such as at the neck (carotid artery), wrist (radial artery or ulnar artery), at the groin (femoral artery), behind the knee (popliteal artery), near the ankle joint (posterior tibial artery), and on foot (dorsalis pedis artery). The pulse is most commonly measured at the wrist or neck for adults and at the brachial artery (inner upper arm between the shoulder and

AI overview

Your pulse is the rhythmic throbbing you feel in your arteries as your heart beats, pumping blood through your body. Doctors and nurses commonly measure it at your wrist or neck because these locations allow easy access to arteries near the skin's surface, making it a quick way to check your heart rate and overall health.
