A sphygmomanometer is a medical device used to measure blood pressure. It typically consists of an inflatable cuff that is wrapped around the arm, a measuring unit (manometer) that indicates the pressure, and a means to inflate the cuff, which can be either a hand pump or an automatic electronic mechanism.
