The pulse check should be on the carotid or femoral artery.
CPR stands for cardiopulmonary resuscitation. It is a technique that anyone can perform on someone with cardiac arrest to keep them alive.
After Mr. Philllips shows signs of ROSC ( return of spontaneous circulation), which means that his heart is beating again, we can check his pulse in two different places:
- In the carotid artery in the neck
- In the femoral artery in the legs
The carotid and femoral artery carry a lot of blood to the brain and the legs, respectively. If we can detect a pulse in one of these arteries, it is a clear sign that the heart is beating well.
