me and my friend was trying to take our BP for almost half an hour but we still can’t get it right…. BP my ass…..!!!!
Thank you sir. I am attending Sanford Brown.
thank you very much for helpful detail
thank you!! soo much!!! you dnt know how much i want to hug you!! not in a bad way. i have my cna testing tomorrow and part of the skills is taking blood pressure. you explained it way better than my teacher did.
@bebespider he’s taking the BP by LISTENING to the korotkoff sounds. He’s not palapting it with a stethoscope. Btw, the new edition of Bate’s guide to PE acutally allows the use of the thumb in taking the pulses (esp in the carotid and the radial artery).
Lol.. Have you critical people even check blood pressure instead of reading about it. Yes you do not use your thumb when checking a PULSE. As far as checking a patient’s blood pressure your thumb does not conflict with the reading (knowing from experience) u do not hear the pulse in ur thumb at all when holding the stethoscope to the patient’s arm.
so informative thanks
They are no longer teaching or using this method because it causes damage to the artery and are now using the two step method. Update.
@stephdgarcia he did not put the thumb over the steth moron
What about patients with poor circulation? One technique is to locate the brachael artery pulse point at the crease of the forearm, lay the bell over that point, and inflate the cuff till the pulse dissipates, then inflate the cuff 30 MMHG higher. I have an issue hearing the brach pulse through the stethoscope, is that due to poor quality equipment or poor circulation?
He did a great job, i did not see him use his thumb..The thumb have a pulse of its own,do you think as a doctor he knows that, you’ll are so damn self-righteous, he is already a doctor, you’ll are just jeleous of him, keep up the great job Dr……Thanks for giving us your time.
call me dumb but i think the only time not to use your thumb is when checking a pulse. i really dont see where he went wrong
magaling pa ko sa inyo
@bebespider his probably just a new student—the white coat tricks you
@meliexoxo I did not see him using his thumb anywhere–but yes it is true the thumb has it’s own pulse thats why you use the index and middle finger to take the radial pulse
