A sphygmomanometer measures blood pressure. It consists of an inflatable cuff placed around the upper arm and a gauge to measure the pressure as the cuff inflates and deflates. The device records two key numbers: the systolic pressure (the pressure when the heart contracts) and the diastolic pressure (the pressure when the heart relaxes between beats).
