that oxygen to do work. Refers to an individuals ability to syustain physical effort over a
period of time and ability to respond to emergencies.

5. Use a 15 second count (multiply by 4 to get beats per minute)

Resting BP - ✔️✔️Blood pressure is the force of blood against the walls of the arteries
created by the heart as it pumps blood to all parts of the body. Measured at the brachial
artery and expressed in unites of mmHg.
Systolic BP is the max pressure in the arteries when the heart contracts during a heart
beat.
Diastolic BP is the minimum pressure in the arteries when the heart relaxes.
This is the final check to ensure a client is ready to undertake the PA portions of the
assessment.
Resting BP instruction - ✔️✔️1. Sit and rest with their feet flat on the floor and arms on
the chair rests for at least 5 minutes

4. May be beneficial to palpate a brachial pulse with your fingers prior to applying or

above the point where the radial pressure is no longer palpable
