    Very helpful, well explained. I use the automatic machines all the time and had quite a hard time understanding this drawn out procedure from the book, but your demonstration really helped.

    It is the lateral pressure exerted by a column of blood as it flows through the artery

    Some say the last sound is diastolic and some say the no sound (phase 5) is diastolic

    I didn’t actually find this video as helpful as other manual BP videos. For example, she did not say the first estimated systolic number out loud - obviously the student nurse could see it but it was hard to see it on the dial as a viewer. Instructional videos should ideally go through every single step, including any relevant numbers, and speak them out loud.

      Also, the patient’s arm was too low - it should’ve been resting at heart level.

    when are you so called professionals going to learn, the way you took her pressure was so bad. her arm was not supported at heart level, she was leaning strongly to one side, her back was in no way supported, her feet where not firm to the floor! how could you possibly get an accurate reading? do it correctly.

      You make a lot of good points. Given you disagree with the techniques used here and you feel they could improve same, then, by all means, pass on your skills and knowledge. But remember - you catch more bees with honey than vinegar 🍯 ☺️ 🩺 🏥 .
