My 2nd year colleagues have yet to learn or even use one on a patient, as its not protocol for our clinic participation. However this summer I had the opportunity to perform physical exams with a podiatrist who assured me that podiatry students/residents will be expected to know how to check blood pressure/pulses/etc. However, I'm noticing not even attendings or ANY upperclassman carrying one, so I feel like a tool. Should I keep it home from now on? Advice from anyone?
