👉 The sphygmogram is a visual representation of blood pressure, usually used to monitor cardiovascular health. It consists of two graphs: one showing systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and another showing mean arterial pressure (MAP). These graphs are typically displayed on a blood pressure cuff, which measures the average blood pressure over a 24-hour period. This information is crucial for diagnosing conditions such as hypertension, heart disease, or stroke, as well as guiding treatment plans.
