| 11. | This will occlude the brachial artery.
|
| 12. | Erlanger developed and patented a new type of sphygmomanometer that could measure blood pressure from the brachial artery.
|
| 13. | The higher systolic reading of the left and right arm brachial artery is generally used in the assessment.
|
| 14. | First, the cuff is inflated to a point that it cuts off blood flow in the arm's brachial artery.
|
| 15. | Normal blood flow in the brachial artery is 85 to 110 milliliters per minute ( mL / min ).
|
| 16. | Distally, the median nerve crosses the medial side of the brachial artery and lies anterior to the elbow joint.
|
| 17. | The ideal blood pressure in the brachial artery, where standard blood pressure cuffs measure pressure, is < 120 / 80 mmHg.
|
| 18. | The brachial artery is closely related to the median nerve; in proximal regions, the median nerve is immediately lateral to the brachial artery.
|
| 19. | The brachial artery is closely related to the median nerve; in proximal regions, the median nerve is immediately lateral to the brachial artery.
|
| 20. | With a manual instrument, listening with a stethoscope to the brachial artery at the elbow, the examiner slowly releases the pressure in the cuff.
