This doc is talking fast and I can't figure out what he is saying.  Thank you for any suggestions.

lower extremity pulses - jaf

[ In Reply To ..]
There are popliteal, dorsalis pedis, anterior tibial and posterior tibial pulses. Listen again. Sometimes, dictators will abbreviate these also. JAF

could be saying "palpable distal pulses" nm - elaine
