What is Pulse Rate? | Pulse Rate Normal Range Chart

Описание: The rhythmic expansion and contraction of an artery as blood is forced through it (pumped by the heart) is known as pulse.
The pulse can be described in terms of its rate (number of expansion per minute) its rhythm, strength and whether the blood vessel feels hard or soft.
The pulse rate is determined by counting the beats in a set period (minimum 15 to 20 seconds) and multiplying to give the beats per minute.
The pulse rate usually corresponds to the heart rate which varies according to the persons state of relaxation or physical activity.
Abnormal rhythm may be a sign of heart disorder. If the pulse feels weak, it may be a sign of heart failure, shock or an obstruction to the blood circulation. Weak or absent pulse in one or both legs is a sign of peripheral vascular disease.
