The nurse is using the finger pads of the hand to palpate a body part. The nurse would best be able to detect which finding?

A. Pulses: The finger pads are particularly effective for detecting the presence, strength, and regularity of pulses due to their sensitivity and the ability to apply gentle pressure. B. Vibrations: Vibrations are best assessed with the ulnar surface of the hand rather than the finger pads. C. Fremitus: Fremitus, or the vibrations transmitted through the chest wall, is best assessed using the palmar or ulnar surface of the hand. D. Temperature: Temperature is more effectively assessed using the back of the hand, not the finger pads.
