made by a cambridge Reverend, stephen Hales, in 1733. he measured blood pressure by inserting the end of a long glass tube into the carotid artery of a horse and noting that the blood came up the tube to a height of nine feet eight inches, which was the blood pressure of the horse

It took Riva-Rocci, together with a prussian general called Korotkoff, to develop the modern sphygmomanometer which was introduced into clinica practice in about 1905. The device that probably many of us still use today to measure blood pressure has changed very little from this early device. 4
