NIBP
NIBP stands for non‑invasive blood pressure, a method of measuring arterial blood pressure without penetrating the skin or vessels. The most common technique employs an inflatable cuff placed around the upper arm or forearm. When the cuff is inflated, it temporarily occludes arterial blood flow; pressure readings are then obtained as the cuff deflates, either manually through a stethoscope (the auscultatory method) or automatically by detecting pulse waves with photoplethysmography or oscillometric sensors (the oscillometric method). The device records systolic and diastolic values, sometimes also mean arterial pressure and pulse pressure.
Clinical use of NIBP is widespread in hospitals, outpatient clinics, emergency settings, and at home for chronic
Standard guidelines recommend proper cuff sizing, ensuring the cuff’s bladder covers 40–50 % of the arm’s length
NIBP plays a pivotal role in public health initiatives such as blood pressure monitoring programs and in
