Do You Have High Blood Pressure?
The blood pressure cuff that we use today is designed in the late 1880s. It's important for the patient to have their arm exactly at the height of the heart. I'm waiting for someone to come out with ultrasound and some other technologies where they can actually tell us what our blood pressure is without trying to clamp down on the hose. Because you look, you know this. You'll get another reading. And also they admitted that there was limitations trying to test the pressure of a fluid inside a hose and squeezing the outside of the hose to determine that. We don't do that with our cars. We have internal pressure.
