It is not so often dicrotic as in typhoid fever.

During the crisis, and for a day or two thereafter, the pulse may be weak, compressible, and dicrotic, and occasionally irregular.

Dicrotic, dī-krot′ik, adj. double-beating—also Dī′crotous.—n.

The pulse of high tension has a gradual rise, a more or less rounded apex, and the dicrotic wave is slightly marked and occurs about half-way down on the descending limb.

Such a pulse can be easily palpated, and is known as a dicrotic pulse.
