What is the machanism of sphygmomanometer?

The sphygmomanometer works by putting pressure on a blood vessel and then measuring when the blood vessel starts to pump blood again after pressure is lessened. This device is also called a blood pressure monitor.


What is the difference between sphygmomanometer and the electronic one?

A sphygmomanometer measures blood pressure. It can be electronic or manual; the main difference being how much human interaction is required to measure blood pressure. With a manual sphygmomanometer, you observe the amount of pressure in the cuff in real-time (usually on a dial gauge) while listening for a bruit in an artery distal to the cuff. An electronic sphygmomanometer does the same thing, but it electronically listens for the bruit and generally displays the blood pressure reading after the measurement is completed. So with a manual sphygmo someone must watch a pressure gauge and listen for a bruit to be heard and when it stops to get a reading. An electronic sphygmo does all this automatically and gives a reading. An electronic sphygmo is more convenient and doesn't require as much training to use.

What is the working principle of a spygmomanometer?

The sphygmomanometer is designed to monitor blood pressure by measuring the force of the blood in the heart where the pressure is greatest. This occurs during the contraction of the ventricles, when blood is pumped from the heart to the rest of the body (systolic pressure). The minimal force is also measured. This occurs during the period when the heart is relaxed between beats and pressure is lowest (diastolic pressure).

What other uses are there for a sphygmomanometer?

You can use it as a tourniquet for scientific experiments or for engorging veins for blood drawing. Also can be used in blood clotting studies where a constant pressure is required for the test to be accurate, where a small cut is made in the skin and the time taken for the blood to clot is measured.

How is blood pressor messuresd?

Blood pressure is typically measured using a device called a sphygmomanometer. This device consists of an inflatable cuff that is placed around the upper arm, a pressure gauge or digital monitor to measure the pressure, and a stethoscope to listen to blood flow. The measurement is given as two numbers, systolic pressure (the higher number) and diastolic pressure (the lower number), measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
