Question
lo 3.10. the ____ uses an electronic device that detects the oscillations in the arterial walls as the cuff is inflated and deflated.
vascular impedance measurement
sphygmomanometer
plethysmographic method
blood pressure gauge
oscillometric technique
The oscillometric technique uses an electronic device to detect oscillations in arterial walls during cuff inflation and deflation. Vascular impedance measurement focuses on electrical impedance. A sphygmomanometer is a general blood - pressure - measuring device (not specifically described by the given mechanism). The plethysmographic method measures volume changes. A blood - pressure gauge is a general term. The key is the detection of oscillations as described in the question, which aligns with the oscillometric technique.
