The word arterial pertains to the words artery and arteries.æ Arterial also can describe the often bright red oxygen rich blood that flows through the arteries and pulmonary veins.
Function ofbulb of sphygmomanometer?
The function of the bulb of a manual sphygmomanometer is to inflate the cuff to stop the flow of arterial blood in the arm so that the blood pressure can be determined. The bulb pumps air into the cuff, causing it to expand against the upper arm. Enough air is pumped into the cuff to stop the flow of arterial blood. The pressure is then slowly released and the point at which blood begins to flow again is recorded as the systolic pressure, representing the highest arterial pressure of the cardiac cycle. Blood flows only with the beating of the heart, however, and further pressure is released until the arterial blood flows freely. This point is recorded as the diastolic pressure, representing the lowest arterial pressure when the heart is at rest.
How do you calculate the mean arterial pressure?
[Systolic Blood Pressure+(2 x Diastolic Blood Pressure)]/3
What is the difference between arterial and venal blood?
Arterial blood is blood that has picked up oxygen (oxygenated) in the lungs and is being circulated through the body. Venous blood is blood that has been circulated and is now de-oxygenated (low Oxygen content) and is being returned to the lungs to start the process over.
