Femoral pulsation can be best felt at:
High-Yield Explanation
Pulsations of the femoral aery can be felt at the midinguinal point against the head of the femurFemoral aeryIt begins immediately behind the inguinal ligament, midway between the anterior superior spine of the ilium and the symphysis pubis, and passes down the front and medial side of the thigh (hence palpated in this region).It ends at the junction of the middle with the lower third of the thigh, where it passes through an opening in the Adductor magnus to become the popliteal aery.The vessel, at the upper pa of the thigh, lies in front of the hip-joint; in the lower pa of its course it lies to the medial side of the body of the femur, and between these two pas, where it crosses the angle between the head and body, the vessel is some distance from the bone.The first 4 cm. of the vessel is enclosed, together with the femoral vein, in a fibrous sheath--the femoral sheath.In the upper third of the thigh the femoral aery is contained in the femoral triangle (Scarpa's triangle), and in the middle third of the thigh, in the adductor canal (Hunter's canal).
