Product Code
Definition
Device is a replacement cuff to be used in conjunction with a non-invasive blood pressure monitor. Together the devices determine blood pressures and heart rate. This particular cuff contains an embedded antimicrobial. A blood pressure cuff is a device that has an inflatable bladder in an elastic sleeve(cuff) with a mechanism for inflating the bladder. The cuff is used to determine a subject's blood pressure.
Physical State
The device is a typically a textile enfolded over an inflatable bladder.
Technical Method
The blood pressure cuff wraps around the subject's arm or wrist and the bladder is inflated. The pressure from the bladder occludes the artery. When the pressure is slowly released, the Korotkoff sounds or oscillometric wave form produced is interpreted as sytolic and diastolic blood pressures.
Target Area
The cuff is placed either over the upper arm, wrist, or thigh.
