Question

How much is the time delay in transmission of pulse in Radial Artery?

• A. 0.02 second
• B. 0.08 second
• C. 0.07 second
• D. 0.04 second

Hint:

Pulse transmission delay is a crucial indicator in vascular health and is often measured to assess arterial function.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The pulse transmission delay in the radial artery is typically around 0.08 seconds, representing the time it takes for the pressure wave to travel through the arterial system. This delay can be affected by factors such as vascular health and arterial stiffness.
