Patient's question:
Doctor, every time you measure blood pressure, you just wrap something and measure it. How is it measured? What is the high blood pressure of the blood pressure gauge?Doctor's answer:
Hello. Based on your statement, it can be inferred that you are referring to an electronic blood pressure monitor. An electronic blood pressure monitor obtains the systolic pressure value by initially inflating the cuff to apply strong pressure to the blood vessels, and then obtains the diastolic pressure value through subsequent deflation. The sensors in the cuff of an electronic blood pressure monitor collect blood pressure sound signals and process them digitally, directly displaying functions such as systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse values on the screen. Currently, there is no blood pressure monitor used in clinical diagnosis to compare high blood pressure values.
