In the palpatory method of blood pressure determination, instead of listening for the blood flow ...

1. When the cuff is applied
2. When the cuff is being deflated
3. When the first pulsation is felt
4. When the second pulsation is felt

Rationale 1: Assessing the pulse before the cuff is inflated is not the pressure.
Rationale 2: This is not the client’s blood pressure if the cuff is just being deflated.
Rationale 3: The first pulsation that is felt after the cuff is slowly deflated is the blood pressure reading that is recorded if the palpatory method is used to assess a client's blood pressure.
Rationale 4: If the second pulsation is recorded, that would be an inaccurate reading.
