INSPECTION – UPPER EXTREMITIES
Color Nailbeds (capillary refill and clubbing) Temperature Texture Skin turgor Lesions or scars Edema Symmetrical

PALPATION – UPPER EXTREMITIES
Pulses – Carotid, Temporal, Brachial, Radial Rate Rhythm
Regular Irregular – Unpredictable pattern
Consider conduction problem Irregular - With repeated pattern
Sinus arrhythmia Pulsus alternans – regular rate, beats alternate weak and strong, seen
with heart failure Bigeminal pulse – 2 rapid beats followed by a long interval Labile pulse – normal at rest, increases with sitting or standing
Elasticity Force
Pulsus differens – unequal pulses in L and R extremities, indicative of impaired circulation

PALPATION – UPPER EXTREMITIES
Epitrochlear lymph nodes In the antecubital fossa, drains the hand and
lower arm

INSPECTION – LOWER EXTREMITIES
Color Hair distribution Venous pattern Size, atrophy Skin lesions or ulcers Edema
Bilateral – with a systemic problem, heart failure
Unilateral – local obstruction or inflammation

PALPATION – LOWER EXTREMITIES
Temperature Pulses Inguinal lymph nodes Homan’s sign
With the pt’s. knee slightly bent, sharply dorsiflex the foot. Ask the pt. if it elicits calf pain. **A (+) Homan’s sign is present is < 20% of all DVTs.
Edema Pitting Brawny

PITTING EDEMA
Grading Pitting Edema 1+ Mild
Slight indentation, novisible swelling
2+ Moderate Indentation subsidesRapidly,10-15 sec.
3+ Deep Indentation remainsfor a short time, lasts > 1 min.Legs look swollen
4+ Very deep Indentation lasts a longtime, lasts 2-5 min. Legs look very swollen

BRAWNY EDEMA
Nonpitting, hardto touch. Seen withlymphatic obstructionand deep vein occlusion.

AUSCULTATION Bruit – unexpected swooshing or
murmur sound over an artery or organ. Occurs with turbulent blood flow, indicative of partial occlusion. Sites for auscultation: Temporal Carotid Subclavian Abdominal aorta Renal Iliac Femoral

ASSESSMENT FOR ARTERIAL OCCLUSION OR INSUFFICIENCY
Parethesiaand Paralysisoccur with acute occlusionof a majorartery.
