Importance for bilateral palpation of pulse old fact rediscovered

Buttonhole: an old technique rediscovered.

Haptic Pulse Simulation for Virtual Palpation

In this paper we propose a software-based approach to simulate the haptics of the human pulse. This effect can then be interactively explored by virtual palpation. The algorithm features a flexible, userdefined setup. In addition the simulation takes dynamic parameters into account and allows for many different use cases.

Clonidine: An Old Friend Newly Rediscovered

Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education: Clonidine, a relatively old anti-hypertensive agent, has been used during the last years, as an analgesic agent. Nowadays, this drug has been used not only orally, but also, intravenously and interathechally; which possibly suggest newer mechanisms. There are emerging evidence for this fact.

Dorsalis pedis arterial pulse: palpation using a bony landmark.

INTRODUCTION The unreliability of the pulse examination of the foot has primarily been due to variability of technique between examiners. Whereas the groove between the medial malleolus and the Achilles tendon more readily defines the location of the posterior tibial pulse, the location of the dorsalis pedis pulse remains vague. In this paper a novel method of locating the dorsalis pedis pulse ...
