Description

A BP cuff, also known as a blood pressure cuff or sphygmomanometer cuff, is a crucial component of blood pressure measurement devices. It consists of an inflatable cuff that wraps around the upper arm, typically above the elbow, and a pressure gauge or manometer for measuring blood pressure. The cuff is inflated using a BP bulb to temporarily occlude the brachial artery, and then slowly deflated while listening for sounds of blood flow with a stethoscope placed over the artery. This process allows healthcare providers to determine systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings. BP cuffs come in various sizes to accommodate different arm circumferences and are essential tools for monitoring blood pressure in clinical settings, home healthcare, and emergency situations.
