Doctors determine if the blood supply to the hands is good by performing the Allen test. In the Allen test, your doctor presses his or her thumb against the ulnar artery, which is located in the âpinkie fingerâ side of the wrist. Your doctor will then press his or her other thumb on the radial artery, which is located on the thumb side of the wrist.
Possible points for measuring the heart rate are: 1  The ventral aspect of the wrist on the side of the thumb (radial artery). 2  The ulnar artery. 3  The neck (carotid artery). 4  The inside of the elbow, or under the biceps muscle (brachial artery). 5  The groin (femoral artery). 6  Behind the medial malleolus on the feet (posterior tibial artery).
