  2. Blood pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure_measurement

    A more accurate value of systolic blood pressure can be obtained with a sphygmomanometer and palpating the radial pulse. [11] Methods using constitutive models have been proposed to measure blood pressure from radial artery pulse. [citation needed] The diastolic blood pressure cannot be estimated by this method. The American Heart Association ...

  3. Blood pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure

    The most common automated blood pressure measurement technique is based on the oscillometric method. [103] Fully automated oscillometric measurement has been available since 1981. [ 104 ] This principle has recently been used to measure blood pressure with a smartphone. [ 105 ]

  4. Sphygmomanometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphygmomanometer

    A sphygmomanometer (/ ˌ s f ɪ ɡ m oʊ m ə ˈ n ɒ m ɪ t ə r / SFIG-moh-mə-NO-mi-tər), also known as a blood pressure monitor, or blood pressure gauge, is a device used to measure blood pressure, composed of an inflatable cuff to collapse and then release the artery under the cuff in a controlled manner, [1] and a mercury or aneroid manometer to measure the pressure.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scipione_Riva-Rocci

    Riva Rocci's major contribution to medicine was the invention of an easy-to-use version of the mercury sphygmomanometer which measured brachial blood pressure. [1] [2] [5] The key element of this design was the use of a cuff that encircled the arm; previous designs had used rubber bulbs filled with water or air to manually compress the artery or other technically difficult methods to measure ...

  6. Continuous noninvasive arterial pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_noninvasive...

    All methods measure peripheral arterial pressure, which is inherently different from the blood pressure detected from proximal arteries. Even the comparison between the two clinical “gold standards” invasive continuous blood pressure at the arteria radialis and noninvasive, but intermittent, upper arm cuff shows large differences. [21]
