Abstract
Objective: To assess the reliability of the blood pressure by the three different apparatuses, Aneroid, mercury and digital sphygmomanometers on adult male populations.
Methodology: A total of sixty subjects, aged between fifteen and twenty-five, were chosen from various schools in the Kashmiri district of Shopian. Nonetheless, a mercury sphygmomanometer is used to measure blood pressure when the patient is at rest. Subsequently, an electronic device and a digital sphygmomanometer are used to monitor blood pressure.
Results: According to the results, there is a mean difference in the blood pressure measurement instruments: the digital blood pressure measuring device has a systolic blood pressure mean of 117.33, whereas the mercury's is 118.10. The mercury's diastolic blood pressure is 78.66, whereas the other instrument's diastolic blood pressure is 79.06, and the aneroid blood pressure mean is 117.76 and the diastolic at 78.43.
Conclusion: The sphygmomanometer is as accurate as it is, but the mercury sphygmomanometer performed better than both digital and analog instruments and ought to be utilized for appropriate and superior administration.
