Many patients are nervous³ when they see a nurse or a doctor and the patient's pulse is faster as a re­sult⁵ That’s why you must wait a few seconds before you begin to count the pulse. If the nurse sees any changes in the beating⁶ of the pulse she must immediately tell the doctor. It is very important and you must be able to see any changes in the beating of the pulse.
