Meaning of "haemomanometer" in English

A haemomanometer is a medical instrument used to measure blood pressure. It typically consists of a cuff that is wrapped around a limb, usually the upper arm, which is inflated to constrict the blood flow. This allows the device to detect the pressure exerted by the circulation of blood within the arteries. The readings are taken in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and help in diagnosing and monitoring various health conditions related to cardiovascular health. The haemomanometer is essential in healthcare settings, particularly in cardiology and primary care practices.
