An analog Accoson sphygmomanometer is a manual blood pressure device using a mechanical gauge (aneroid manometer) with a needle and dial to display readings in mmHg. It's known for its reliability, durability, and accuracy without needing batteries. Key components include the aneroid gauge, inflatable cuff, inflation bulb with a release valve, and connecting tubes. Accoson, a UK manufacturer, offers various models (hand-held, desk, wall-mounted, stand) and emphasizes clear, easy-to-read gauges. Blood pressure is measured by inflating the cuff to stop blood flow and then gradually releasing it while listening for Korotkoff sounds with a stethoscope and observing the pressure on the analog dial to determine systolic and diastolic readings.
