values to an invasive
arterial BP measurement technology.
The auscultatory
method uses audible sounds heard through a stethoscope
and determines BP by the corresponding height of a
column of mercury.
Invasive pressure monitoring directly measures the pressure
exerted on a transducer and displays this pressure as a
value. Noninvasive blood pressure monitoring is dependent
on the flow of blood through the peripheral circulation.
