Question

How do you assess the brachial pulse of an infant

Answer 1

Answer:

To find the brachial artery, remove the infant's clothing enough to expose one arm. The brachial artery is located on the inside of the arm between the bicep and tricep against the humerus bone. Place your two fingers on the artery to check for a pulse, just as you would for other victims.

Explanation:

Meaning, right where the arm slides down twoards the armpit, not on the armpit. When you place your two fingers there, its like on an adults neck. Put only a slight amount of pressure as to not hurt the infant.
