Blood Pressure without a Stethoscope?
You can take a person 'value of s blood pressure without a stethoscope? My mummy had need of his blood pressure taken and Adelle asked a nurse where she worked for to take. The method that was used while normal on the use of a cuff and a manometer inflated but instead used a stethoscope his fingers just a 'feel' the blood pressure. Now a nurse is very experienced and took a blood pressure values countless times but I can 'help wonder tonnes as its possible to' feel 'the Korotkov sounds to take a proper measure. Someone has found this method before? Of health professionals out there capable of doing some light on this for me? Thanks Thanks very much for all your answers. I haven 't had selected a best response based on who is wrong and who is right and who am I to determine that. I simply chose the most informative. But you have all helped shed a little light on so thanks again:)

When you look at the knob, you can see a small jump the needle to read the numbers of BP. I observe and listen.
You can see when the systolic (most high) and rebounds (most low) on diastolic sphigmonometre, non? very accurate, even those digital machines don 't require a stethoscope. Listening BP takes into account the irregolarit? be taken
Ho. When I go with my wife to her doctor nurse makes its B / P the same way. It annoys me to the devils. You 're absolutely right about the change in diastolic tone. The course can be palpated systolic and often in an emergency situation just to give the doctor an idea of what he / she 's working with, like a trauma patient, a CPR etc. dell'alberino. But the diastolic? Much too inaccurate for a critical measure. And thanks for putting a name on the change in diastolic tone, Korotkov, I had never heard a name applied to that. God blesses him and keeps in good health.
