Why is the cuff of a manual sphygmomanometer placed as close to the heart as possible?
The cuff should be placed at the LEVEL of the heart to get the most accurate pressure reading.
What are the 3 different sphygmomanometer cuff sizes?
Small, medium and large.
What is principal of spagnomanometer?
The principle of a sphygmomanometer is based on using a cuff to measure the pressure in the arteries when the heart is pumping (systolic pressure) and when the heart is at rest (diastolic pressure). By inflating the cuff and gradually releasing the pressure while listening for the sound of blood flow with a stethoscope, healthcare providers can determine a patient's blood pressure.

Does the cuff of the sphygmomanometer have any effect on the measurement of blood pressure?
definitely. the manner by which you wrap the cuff on the person's arm determines the accuracy of the measurement of BP. if you wrap it too tightly you will get false high results. if you wrap it loosely you will get false low results. it is therefore very important that you wrap the cuff with just the right fit on the patient's arm.
What is a cuff injury?
Possible rotator cuff? as in your shoulder.
1.Why does the needle of the sphygmomanometer twitch only when the device is between the subjects systolic and diastolic blood pressure?
When the cuff is initially put on, it's put on with high air pressure in order to pinch so tightly that even at systolic pressure the blood cannot flow through that vein the cuff is monitoring. So there is no pulse detected by the cuff as there is no blood flow in the vein at that place. Then when the cuff air is released that relaxes the pinch to where its pressure matches or below the systolic pressure, the blood and its pulse from the heart beat flow again in the vein. And that pulsing is the "twitch" that you see. But then as more cuff pressure is relieved it reaches the same pressure as the diastolic pressure in the vein. And the diastolic pressure does not pulse as it's the pressure when the heart is relaxed and not pumping. So the twitching stops at or below the diastolic pressure on the cuff because there is no pulse in the diastolic or below range.
Which of these muscles is not part of the rotator cuff?
Many muscles are no where near it like my toe, leg, heart, etc.
