pedal pulse, pedis pulse. Same?? - gagirl


Posted: Jan 23, 2010

Is pedal pulse and pedis pulse basically the same or different? if different, what is the difference?

Here's my take...see below - MTtoday

[ In Reply To ..]
Dorsalis pedis is the Latin expression of dorsal pedal, which is the English version. They are the same.

Thanks so much for clarifying for me!! - ga girl
