INVENT AN APPLIANCE
FOR MEASURING THE
PRESSURE OF BLOW

Baltimore. Md. Oct. 27s-An instru-
glent long needed by the medical pro-
fession for measuring blood pressure.
has been invented by Dr. d. r. Hooker,
of Johns Hopkins university. and j. A.
Eyster. Of the University Of Virginia.
The new instrument consists of a small
glass box containing a rubber bag.
This is attached to the wrist of the pat
ienrs directly over the artery. The box
is connected by a tube to a water man
ometer to which is attached a rubber
bulb. BY squeezing this bulb pressure
is exerted on the vein. When this vein
is seen to collapse, the pressure may be
read from the manometer.
