DAILY QUIZ A 15 1. Pulse can be palpated at which of the following? radial artery femoral artery common carotid artery temporal artery All of the above 2. A is used along with a stethoscope to measure blood pressure 3. When measuring blood pressure, one inflates the pressure cuff until the pressure (in the cuff is greater than the pressure in the brachial artery, occluding blood flow. When the pressure in the cuff is released, the pressure will drop. As you read the pressure gauge and observe the pressure drop, the first sound you hear, corresponding with blood once again flowing in t he brachial artery, is known as the blood pressure. As the cuff is further deflated, more blood flows in the brachial artery until no sound is heard. Pressure at which you no longer hear blood flow using your stethoscope is the blood pressure. is the pressure of systolic pressure minus diastolic pressure 4 is the average pressure that drives blood in tissues. It is equal to diastolic pressure + 1/3 pulse pressure.
