Cardiac Monitoring Services provides devices that allow individuals to monitor their heart rate and identify potential circulatory system defects. Checking one's pulse is important for maintaining health, as increases in heart rate can foreshadow serious health conditions, even if the changes are not dramatic. The most common way to check one's pulse is by placing two fingers on the radial artery on the thumb side of the wrist and counting the heartbeats over 15 seconds, then multiplying that number by four to determine the heart rate.

around Irvine, California, can benefit from the
services provided by Cardiac Monitoring Services.
With the devices provided by Cardiac Monitoring
Services, individuals can monitor their heart rate and
identify potential defects within their circulatory
system.
A number of serious health conditions are
foreshadowed by an increase in an individual’s pulse.
However, if the increase is not dramatic, a person
may be unaware that his or her pulse has changed.
In order to properly maintain one’s level of health,
everyone should learn how to monitor his or her pulse.

3.  The most common area of the body a person
uses to check his or her pulse is the wrist. Begin
by placing two fingers between the bone and
tendon of the radial artery, which can be
found on the thumb-side of the wrist. Once the
heartbeat is detected, a person should count
the number of beats that occur over a 15-
second period. Multiplying this number by four
will provide a fairly accurate heart rate. While
age, fitness, and a variety of other factors
determine what a normal pulse should be, a
general estimate is somewhere between 60
and 100 beats.
