If you are unsure if you are palpating your patients pulse or your own what do you do?

If you are unsure whether you are palpating your patient's pulse or your own, you should stop and reassess the situation. Move your hand away and take a moment to refocus. Then, palpate the patient's pulse again, ensuring you are not inadvertently feeling your own. It may also help to have another person check the pulse if you are still uncertain.
