medical equipment tensimeter

Tensimeter

Tensimeter is medical equipment that serves to measure blood pressure. This tool also there are two types: manual and tensimeter tensimeter digital.

Tensimeter manual (tensimeter Mercury)

In general, the accuracy of medical equipment manual is much higher than the digital. Similarly with tensimeter. Mungin that is why tensimeter manual preferred by medical workers.

Tensimeter mercury is a blood pressure cuff-based measurements of mercury as an indicator. Tensimeter this type have the advantage on the level of accuracy is very good. Most good compared to other types tensimeter.

However, using this tensimeter must be very careful. If any of use can be harmful to health, even causing death due to heavy metals mercury poisoning.

Radiation heavy metal tool is the possibility could arise due to leakage in the tube of mercury. Mercury out and inhaled by humans. Leakage can occur due to negligence or other factors that cause the tube container and the evaporation of mercury have cracks or breakage.

Digital tensimeter

Digital tensimeter is medical equipment that serves to measure blood pressure who work digitally (automatic). Digital tensimeter has several advantages, namely:

-Safe, because it does not use mercury radiation risk of heavy metal.-Practical, direct measurement result is displayed on a digital screen.-Multifitur, these tools usually come equipped with a variety of other useful features. As the graph of blood pressure (whether normal blood or not?) And features irreirreguler heart beat.No need special training to use it, because I was not much different from the use of mercury tensimeter. However, digital tensimeter also has a weakness that is the level of measurement accuracy is lower than in tensimeter mercury. Accuracy of measurement in the digital tensimeter is influenced by many factors including the condition of the battery (power), the lifetimes (the longer the use of progressively decreasing level of accuracy) and product technology. Therefore, periodic calibration is necessary. And for the calibration process used tensimeter mercury.
