What is the threshold for radial/apical pulse deficit being a problem. Please include a reference to where I can find your answer in publication (preferably on the web)
A pulse deficit is the difference between the apical vs. radial pulse. A pulse deficit greater than 4 might indicate some physiological problem.
Find it at: (see in page 40)

it is a long subject to discuss, pls refer Braunwald’s text book of heart diseases
