Question

What do you write on the chart if doctor states, “the pulses are fine” after checking the patient’s pulse near the …?

Answer 1

The radial artery is usually the place where pulse is being detected, and it is found in the human forearm. So the doctor must have checked the patient’s pulse at the radial artery of the patient. In documenting if the pulse is fine or within the normal range, the best way to right it in record is the radial pulse is +2.
