Correct Answer is B
Explanation
A. Assessing the pedal pulses does not provide relevant information about the irregularity of the radial pulse.
B. Assessing the apical pulse for a full minute is appropriate in this situation, as it provides a more accurate measurement of the heart rate and rhythm, especially when the radial pulse is irregular.
C. Assessing the popliteal pulses with a Doppler device is not necessary and does not directly address the irregular radial pulse.
D. While a pulse oximeter can provide information about oxygen saturation, it does not assess heart rate or rhythm.
