When you measure your blood pressure with a sphygmomanometer?
sesame said:
Not hear the sounds of korotkoff perhaps up to 6-8mmHg after my heart "of the aneroid sphygmomanometer; flickers" as it falls. The register when it begins to move quickly or when actually SENTO the sound through the stethoscope? Thank you. I 'm. a student by the way, just checking before my exam.

The only sound is taken.
Record the number as first heard the sound and the last number heard that as it falls. Don 't worry about the "flickers", just the sound.
Recorded when first hearing the sounds of korotkoff (diastolic) when pi? not hear the sounds (systolic). Good luck on your exam!
