What does measuring a patient’s blood pressure using the auscultatory method do? A. It offers valuable information related to cardiac preload B. It involves the reporting of audible venous turbulence created by an inflated arm cuff C. It relates to a systolic relaxation of the ventricles D. It reports the Korotkoff sounds heard from a partially compressed artery
Option D. Korotkoff sounds are made as blood flows turbulently via a compressed artery. They quit when the artery is absolutely squashed and no blood flows (that is taken to be the systolic strain) and additionally while the artery isn't compressed at all. In this situation the air pressure withinside the cuff is same to or much less than the diastolic pressure.
