Module 3 3.1: Introduction to Cardiology Taking a Blood Pressure Blood pressure is the pressure exerted against the walls of blood vessels as blood circulates through the body. Blood pressure is measured using an instrument called a sphygmomanometer, perhaps more commonly known as the blood pressure cuff. The pressures associated are measured in units of millimeters of mercury (mm/Hg). The health care provider inflates a blood pressure cuff in order to cut off the blood flow from the br...
