  2. 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/Blood_pressure_measurement

    A minimum systolic value can be roughly estimated by palpation, most often used in emergency situations, but should be used with caution. [10] It has been estimated that, using 50% percentiles, carotid, femoral and radial pulses are present in patients with a systolic blood pressure > 70 mmHg, carotid and femoral pulses alone in patients with systolic blood pressure of > 50 mmHg, and only a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vital_signs

    The measurement of these pressures is now usually done with an aneroid or electronic sphygmomanometer. The classic measurement device is a mercury sphygmomanometer, using a column of mercury measured off in millimeters. In the United States and UK, the common form is millimeters of mercury, while elsewhere SI units of pressure are used. There ...

    A heart near to the head (short heart-to-head distance) and a long tail with tight integument favor blood perfusion to the head. [ 112 ] [ 113 ] As in humans, blood pressure in animals differs by age, sex, time of day, and environmental circumstances: [ 114 ] [ 115 ] measurements made in laboratories or under anesthesia may not be ...

  7. History of continuous noninvasive arterial pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Continuous...

    The article reviews the evolution of continuous noninvasive arterial pressure measurement (CNAP). The historical gap between ease of use, but intermittent upper arm instruments and bulky, but continuous “pulse writers” (sphygmographs) is discussed starting with the first efforts to measure pulse, published by Jules Harrison in 1835.

  8. Stethoscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stethoscope

    In combination with a manual sphygmomanometer, it is commonly used when measuring blood pressure. Less commonly, "mechanic's stethoscopes", equipped with rod shaped chestpieces, are used to listen to internal sounds made by machines (for example, sounds and vibrations emitted by worn ball bearings), such as diagnosing a malfunctioning ...

  9. Bleeding time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleeding_time

    The IVY method is the traditional format for this test. While both the IVY and Duke's method require the use of a sphygmomanometer, or blood pressure cuff, the IVY method is more invasive than the Duke method, utilizing an incision on the ventral side of the forearm, whereas the Duke method involves puncture with a lancet or special needle. In ...
