What is the general pulse range for toddlers?

80-120 bpm
100-190 bpm
60-140 bpm
90-150 bpm

The correct answer is: 100-190 bpm

The general pulse range for toddlers is typically between 100 and 190 beats per minute. This elevated heart rate compared to adults is crucial for the developmental needs of toddlers, reflecting their higher metabolic requirements and energetic lifestyle. Understanding this range is essential for health professionals when assessing a toddler's cardiovascular health. The other ranges provided do not accurately reflect the normal pulse range for toddlers. The values listed in the other choices are either too low or too narrow to encompass the normal physiological variations observed in this age group. In clinical practice, recognizing the appropriate heart rate for toddlers helps ensure prompt identification of any potential health issues.
