Have the person sit still with their hand resting stationery in a position below their heart. Locate their thumb and follow the Radius bone from the thumb toward their wrist. Just past their wrist use the pads of your index and middle finger to palpate the radius pulse just inside the radial bone on the distal end of the forearm. If you measure the pulse for 15 secs multiply by 4, 30 seconds multiply by 2, or measure a full minute to beats per minute. After an injury to an upper extremities, it is common to locate the radial pulse on both wrists at the same time to compare the strength of the pulse thus making sure circulation is good.

Eduardo is unable to communicate his dissatisfaction with the sexual side of his relationship with his partner. according to the

viktelen [127]

I'm going to answer this based on context, so it may not be accurate, but it's how I feel.

Eduardo doesn't communicate with his partner. He gets frustrated. Then he's filled with resentment. His partner is unaware. The relationship most likely won't be good from this point unless Eduardo learns to communicate with his partner. Otherwise, the relationship will most likely be out the window in a while.

Hope that helped! :)

Have a good day! :)
