Deneb those machines aren't accurate a lot of the time. The old fashion blood pressure cuff and stesescope are reliable as the person taking it hears with their ears the highest and lowest number. The highest and first is systolic and the lowest last noise is diastolic and that is the most important number it shows the vessels when they are relaxed. Love Phillipa
