Where does "capillary refill" get counted in the multisys exam in 97 guidelines.

I don't see a clear place for it in cardiovascular. Would you count in inspect skin? Or even under palpation of digits/nails? Physician usually lists under extremities.

Thanks, Kim
 
I found the answer to this. A coworker and I figured it out.
It should be under Ext for edema/varicosities, in the cardiovascular portion of the cardiovascular exam type and the multi-system exam type.
