Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
In today's medicine ultrasound and imaging are dominant features. As a consequence a tactile maneuver like palpation of the pulse became something like a relic from the past, rather trivial and habitual but certainly not an activity to be haughty about in terms of skill and professional development. Nevertheless medical history tells a complete different story and rehabilitation of the pulse lore is highly desirable as a tool with sense and simplicity, reassuring when possible but for all as an inexpensive and accessible instrument with a substantial diagnostic yield. |
