alterations in blood-pressure very accurately. This may be done by means of a mercurial manometer in the following way: — The short hori- zontal limb of this (Fig. 132, 1) is connected, by means of an elastic tube and cannula, with the interior of an artery; a solution of sodium or po- tassium carbonate being previously introduced into this part of the appa- ratus to prevent coagulation of the blood. The blood-pressure is thus communicated to the upper part of the mercurial column (2); and the

For the estimation of the arterial tension at any given moment^ no further apparatus than this^ which is called Poiseuille^s hcBmadynamometer, is necessary; but for noting the variations of pressure in the arterial sys- tem, as well as its absolute amount, the instrument is usually combined with a registering apparatus and in this form is called a kymograph.
