Blood pressure measurements can be influenced by circumstances of measurement. [10] Guidelines use different thresholds for office (also known as clinic), home (when the person measures their own blood pressure at home), and ambulatory blood pressure (using an automated device over a 24-hour period).
Español: El vídeo muestra a una mujer que está sentada en la mesa en la correcta posición para la toma de presión arterial. Ésta está descrita en 6 pasos que explican cómo debería estar situado: Paso 1: descanse 5 min. antes de la medición. Paso 2: permanezca sentado con la espalda recta. Paso 3: no cruce las piernas durante la medición.
The unit is named after Blaise Pascal, noted for his contributions to hydrodynamics and hydrostatics, and experiments with a barometer.The name pascal was adopted for the SI unit newton per square metre (N/m 2) by the 14th General Conference on Weights and Measures in 1971.
The kilopound per square inch (ksi) is a scaled unit derived from psi, equivalent to a thousand psi (1000 lbf/in 2).. ksi are not widely used for gas pressures. They are mostly used in materials science, where the tensile strength of a material is measured as a large number of psi.
Atmospheric pressure, also known as air pressure or barometric pressure (after the barometer), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa (1,013.25 hPa), which is equivalent to 1,013.25 millibars, [1] 760 mm Hg, 29.9212 inches Hg, or 14.696 psi.

Pressure measurement is the analysis of an applied force by a fluid on a surface. It is used in various fields including meteorology, aviation, and medicine.
A high-pressure area, high, or anticyclone, is an area near the surface of a planet where the atmospheric pressure is greater than the pressure in the surrounding regions.
