11. Glossary

Blood pressure – The pressure exerted by circulating blood
on the walls of blood vessels; constitutes one of the prin-
cipal vital signs.
Arterial blood pressure is constantly fluctuating during the
course of the cardiac cycle. The highest pressure in the
cycle is called the systolic blood pressure, and represents
the pressure in the artery when the heart is beating. The low-
est pressure is the diastolic blood pressure, and represents
the pressure in the artery when the heart is at rest. Both the
systolic and the diastolic pressure are necessary for a physi-
cian to evaluate the status of a patient's blood pressure.

mornings and increases from the afternoon to the evening.
It is on average lower in the summer and higher in the win-
ter.
Electromagnetic Disturbance – An interruption of the
physical field produced by electrically charged objects; af-
fects the behavior of charged objects in the vicinity of the
field.
mmHg – Millimeter of mercury, the standard unit of mea-

Oscillometric Methodology – A method of pressure mea-
surement using an electronic pressure sensor.
