Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation demonstrated in the Cephalic Vein
Patient with severe pulmonary hypertension and severe tricuspid regurgitation. Jugular vein pulsation was buried under the jaw even sitting upright. So this is another way of measuring pulsation height from axila, after asking the the patient to raise hand above head.
