I think I understand the question. You want to know how to determine
if the record is locked.
As far as I know there isn't a way. If process A locks the record,
then process B attempts to lock the record it will block until
process A releases the record.
If you have statement_timeout set to some value other than -1 then
process B will timeout after waiting for the statement_timeout.
Otherwise it will block until process A is finished with the record.
