How to: Measure Blood Pressure

An introductory video explaining how to manually measure blood pressure. In this video, we are sharing with you the auscultatory method of determining systolic and diastolic arterial pressures. The cuff is placed above the antecubital artery and the cuff is above the upper arm. The stethoscope is placed near the antecubital artery and no sound will be hear when there is enough pressure to close off the artery. When the pressure is slowly released, the sound of blood jetting through the vessel by the vibrations of the wall is called the Korotkoff sounds. The first sound is also the systolic pressure. The diastolic pressure is when a muffled quality occurs. Please note that the sound is often overestimated because sound can still be heard even after deflation of the cuff. This method is not 100% accurate but will give values within the 10% range.

    There is a few other videos they show actually how the cuff is suppose to be aligned he placed the Stethoscope right under that spot there didn't say that. The reason lot of people get wildly inaccurate numbers at home with a machine is because they put the cuff on in correctly not allowing for a 1/2 inch space between the elbow bend also not aligning the cuff correctly. Also cuffs say the arm range if your outside of that range it won't read correctly.

    For people arguing about the proper pressure to pump the cuff up to. This is a neat trick I learned being an EMT, where all we do is take manual blood pressures. Palpate the patient's radial pulse while pumping the cuff. Once you feel the pulse disappear pump the cuff around 20mmhg more and you will know around where their systolic pressure is. This stops the chance of pumping the cuff too low or too high for your patients.

    A few too many inaccuracies for my liking and many other commenters have picked up on one or two... 1. The part that wraps around the arm is a CUFF. A Cusp is a segment of heart valve, or when your birthdate is close to borderline between two astrological signs(!!) 2. The stethoscope is not turned off or on with rotation. It has 2 sides, each specialised for particular sounds. The "bell" is better for hearing low frequency sounds and the "diaphragm" for higher frequency sounds. For brachial blood pressure, use the diaphragm side. 3. The bell must not be under the cuff. The edge of the diaphragm housing can be. Likewise, don't apply a lot of pressure to hold the stethoscope in place. That can result in inaccurate readings. 4. Open the release valve more gently, letting the air pressure down more slowly to get accurate readings. The needle is moving so far between each pulse in your video, that you'll only get rough readings. 5. Systolic pressure reading is not because of the heart contracting. When the cuff pressure is so high that it squeezes the artery shut, no blood passes to the point where the stethoscope is. As you release the pressure in the cuff, the first sounds indicate that blood is just getting past the cuff for a moment. The heart's maximum output pressure has just exceeded the pressure in the cuff. This happens to occur in early systole. 6. Diastolic pressure is when the cuff pressure has dropped to the lowest pressure that the heart still drives arterial circulation, just before the heart goes into diastole (where the atria begin to refill the ventricles)

    Small tip for those that still stumble upon this video. When testing the stethoscope PLEASE do not tap because some are much more capable on picking up sounds and if you tap with them on, then it will definitely hurt your ears. A better way is to just gently rub you finger over it and listen to which side is louder. Which ever side is louder is the side you should use! Hope this helps to those that need it!

  • @FryonMusic
    @FryonMusic9 жыл бұрын

    Marie Wallace, the purpose for going up to 200mm Hg is that it is a starting point for checking blood pressure. Since you slowly let out air while listening to the brachial artery, you want to allow yourself enough time to hear the first rush of blood through that artery. For some people experiencing hypertension, that first rush of blood may be at 180mm Hg or even higher, which is why the standard starting point is 200mm Hg. Hope this helps!

    Thanks for taking it step by step and not skipping over too many points too quickly. Much appreciated! One of the biggest problems with so many "how to" videos is that the instructor often assumes too much knowledge on the part of the listener. He or she has forgotten what it was like to be a total newbie. Occasionally it's even worse. The instructor is more interested in showing off than actually helping newbies understand. One question though. How would one go about taking one's own BP using the same equipment? Any special dos and don'ts?

    You actually do not turn the stethoscope 'on' or 'off.' The larger diaphragm side is normally used for adult patients. The smaller-diameter bell is used for pediatric patients, for maneuvering around bandages, and for carotid assessment. you switch between the two by twisting the connection.

Your inflate the cuff until you can no longer hear the pulse, depending on the individual that could be 60 for an athlete or 180 or more for someone with CHF. Inflating the cuff more that what is needed in uncomfortable for the patient and could potentially give a false reading.

    This is a well made video, but there is an error in your procedure. You release the pressure at too fast a rate, and so there is an inaccuracy in your readings. The error is because you can hear the heart only when it beats, not when it's idle. Here's an example. Let's say the subject's heart beat rate is 60 per minute, or one a second. With the falling needle measuring mm pressure, the needle will fall past so many mm in a second's time. It looks to me that your needle moved at least 10 mm in one second around the systolic value. If the heart beats by chance just at the time the needle passes the true systolic value, you get an accurate measurement, but the heart is not likely to cooperate so well. Thus, your reading could be off by as much as 10 mm. For a subject with a slower heart beat rate, the error could be larger, and for a subject with a faster heart beat rate, the error could be lower.

    Remember, the diastolic bloodpressure is the pressure between every heartbeat. When the cuff is tightly around your arm at 70, and let's say your diastolic is 60 mmhg - the cuff is creating a "bounce" on the blood during resting. When the cuff pressure go lower then your diastolic, it is no longer affecting the pressure and the blood can flow as usual without being disturbed, and that's why you dont hear anything

    1. It's ok to put a small portion of the diaphragm (bigger part) under the bladder (the cusp) but don't put the whole thing with the bell (the smaller part) under the bladder, your pt is gonna end up with a huge circle mark on their arm, especially if your pumping to 200. 2. If you really want to get good at taking bp, take some in the back of an ambulance, the low rumble of a diesel engine sounds extremely similar to the low frequency of korotkoff sounds, throw in a siren and you become an expert real fast. 3. Don't ever take a bp using the needle bounce instead of sound, it's not the same thing. 4. Don't fake a bp, just retake it. 5. If you're gonna fake a bp, please don't say its 120/80, it's a dead giveaway. 6. Please don't give an odd number with a manual bp, it's impossible to obtain, round up or down. Especially if your faking it. 7. If your a new EMT riding with a medic, TAKE MANUAL vitals, It's easy to cop out and use the lifepack but your selling yourself short, practice!

    Not sure why he doesn't palpate the radial to get a systolic estimate. That way you inflate the cuff to 30mmHg higher than their estimation, as opposed to going right up to 200. Also the cuff should be around 5cm above the antecubital fossa, it's too low and their should be no contact with the bell of the stethoscope and the cuff.
