- Confirm the diaphragm or bell is properly attached and the rotating valve is set to the desired side (diaphragm or bell) for auscultation.
5. Instruccions de funcionament
5.1 Measuring Blood Pressure with Sphygmomanometer
- Preparació del pacient: Ensure the patient is relaxed, seated comfortably with their arm supported at heart level. Avoid talking during the measurement.
- Col·locació del puny:
- Slide the cuff onto the bare upper arm, approximately 1 inch (2-3 cm) above the elbow joint.
- Align the artery marker on the cuff with the brachial artery (typically on the inside of the arm).
- Wrap the cuff snugly around the arm, ensuring it is not too tight or too loose. Utilize the Adcuff calibrated nylon cuff with its proprietary size guide marking system to ensure correct fit for arm circumferences between 23 cm and 40 cm.
- Inflació: Close the air release valve on the inflation bulb by turning it clockwise. Rapidly inflate the cuff by squeezing the bulb until the manometer reads approximately 20-30 mmHg above the patient's usual systolic pressure, or 180-200 mmHg if unknown.
- Deflation and Reading:
- Obriu lentament la vàlvula d'alliberament d'aire girant-la en sentit antihorari, permetent que la pressió baixi a una velocitat de 2-3 mmHg per segon.
- While deflating, listen for Korotkoff sounds through the stethoscope placed over the brachial artery.
- The point at which the first clear, tapping sound is heard is the Pressió sistòlica.
- Continue deflating. The point at which the sounds disappear completely is the Pressió diastòlica.
- Resultats del registre: Note both systolic and diastolic readings.

5.2 Using the Sprague Rappaport Stethoscope
- Select Chestpiece Side: The Sprague Rappaport stethoscope features a dual-head chestpiece. Rotate the stem to select either the diaphragm (larger side, for high-frequency sounds) or the bell (smaller side, for low-frequency sounds). A click indicates the active side.
- Col·locació: Place the active side of the chestpiece firmly on the patient's skin over the area where sounds are to be auscultated (e.g., brachial artery for blood pressure, heart, lungs).
- Escolta: Listen carefully for the desired sounds. Adjust pressure on the chestpiece as needed.
6. Manteniment i cura
- Neteja:
- Wipe the manometer, cuff, and stethoscope with a soft cloth dampened with a mild disinfectant solution (e.g., 70% isopropyl alcohol).
- Do not immerse any part of the device in liquid.
