Question 23

To determine the correct tool for measuring arterial blood pressure by hand, we analyze each option:

• Cardiac catheterization is a procedure to diagnose heart conditions, not for manual blood pressure measurement.
• Treadmill stress test assesses heart function during exercise, not for blood pressure measurement.
• Sphygmomanometer is the device used to measure blood pressure manually.
• Sphygmostasis refers to the cessation of the pulse, not a measurement tool.

To define the word part "reticulo-", we recall medical terminology:

• "Reticulo-" comes from Latin "reticulum" meaning network.
• "Wired" is not the meaning of this word part.
• "Net" is a simpler term, but "network" is the precise definition for the combining form "reticulo-".
• "Retina" is related to the eye and not the meaning of "reticulo-".

Answer:

C. sphygmomanometer
