The peritoneal cavity is a potential space between the parietal and visceral peritoneum.It contains only a thin film of peritoneal fluid, which consists of water, electrolytes, leukocytes and antibodies. The fluid serves two main functions: 1  It acts as a lubricant, enabling free movement of the abdominal viscera.he peritoneal cavity is not completely closed in females.

0 Hi all. I know that the Apical Pulse or PMI or mitral valve or whatever you want to call it is located at the left 5th intercostal space, midclavicular line.
Another location to check your heart rate is over your radial artery at your wrist. With your palm facing up, you can find your pulse by placing your second and third finger in the space located on the thumb side of your wrist, just above the base of your thumb.
