What else can I help you with?
Over which artery is the stethoscope placed when taking blood pressure?
When taking a person's blood pressure the stethoscope should be placed in the brachial artery.
What is blood pressure taking with?
Blood pressure is taken with a sphygmomanometer and a stethoscope.
When listening to the brachial pulse what will you use?
Stethoscope, while taking blood pressure.
How do doctor measure cardiovascular health?
* Pulse rate * Listening to heart sounds through a stethoscope * Blood pressure at rest * Blood pressure after moderate to strenuous exercise
Blood pressure is found by using?
sphygmomanometer and stethoscope
Does a technician use stethoscope?
they do vital signs and do blood pressure so I would asumme so, like many CNAs do Blood pressure but they just grab a stethoscope.
Systolic is measured at which korotkoff?
The systolic pressure is measured at the first Karotkoff sound (stage I), it is the first tapping noise that you hear with a stethoscope when taking a manual blood pressure.
Does a Hemodialysis Technician use stethoscope?
they do vital signs and do blood pressure so I would asumme so, like many CNAs do Blood pressure but they just grab a stethoscope.
How does the change in the sound coming through the stethoscope is used to obtain blood pressure measurements?
The change in sound heard through the stethoscope during blood pressure measurements is primarily due to the Korotkoff sounds, which occur as blood begins to flow through the brachial artery when the occluding pressure of the cuff is released. As the cuff pressure decreases, these sounds transition from muffled to distinct tapping noises, indicating the systolic blood pressure when the first sound is heard and the diastolic pressure when the sounds disappear. This method allows healthcare providers to accurately gauge blood pressure by listening for these auditory cues.
What vessel is most frequently used to take a person's blood pressure?
if taking a manual BP you need a sphygmomanometer and stethoscope if taking a mechanical BP the machine used is called a Dynamap
What sound get between systolic and diastolic blood pressure?
If you are manually taking a blood pressure measurement using a sphygmomanometer and stethoscope, the sounds you hear between the systolic and diastolic blood pressure are called Korotkoff sounds, and they are muffled "whooshing" sounds heard with each heart beat and are thought to be caused by turbulent blood flow through the blood vessel caused by partial occlusion by the cuffed sphygmomanometer.
What is a sphygmomanometer used for?
A sphygmomanometer is used to measure blood pressure. It consists of an inflatable cuff to restrict blood flow, a pressure gauge to measure the pressure in the cuff, and a stethoscope to detect the sounds of blood flowing through an artery.
