Where is the brachial pulse located?

The brachial pulse is located inside the elbow, which is a key area for assessing circulation in the upper arm. Specifically, the brachial artery runs along the inner aspect of the bicep muscle and can be palpated when the arm is slightly flexed. This pulse point is vital in various medical assessments, especially for young children, as it is commonly used to check for pulse when other sites may not be accessible.

The other locations mentioned in the options are associated with different arteries. The wrist is where the radial pulse can be found, the neck is where the carotid pulse is located, and behind the knee, you would find the popliteal pulse. Each of these areas serves to assess blood flow from different major arteries in the body, but the brachial pulse specifically refers to the pulse accessible at the inner elbow.
