Percussing is rarely used today (at least in the states), but some preceptors still teach it. Don't criticize. Get off your high horse. We just have different styles, and they all converge to a DDx

Before feeling the carotids for pulsations, you have to listen with the stethoscope for any souffles. If the carotids contain some instable plaques or thrombi, they can significantly lead for a CVA by palpating them. Palpating the carotids is only allowed when youre sure that the bloodflow is normal and not obstructed.

In the cvs examination, you rarely percuss. There's not much point really.
