Investigating Pulse Rate Background: The heart pumps blood
... The heart pumps blood through blood vessels to all parts of the body. With each contraction of the heart, blood is forced into the arteries. This surge of pressure is felt in the arteries as the pulse. The rhythmic pulse can be felt any place where an artery is close to the surface of the body and c ...
