Diagnostic clues of IOP pulsation on applanation tonometry in carotid-cavernous fistula patients [PDF]
BMC Ophthalmology, 2022 Background Carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) is an abnormal communication between the cavernous sinus and the carotid arterial system and exhibits typical symptoms of red eye, diplopia, blurred vision, headache, and murmur.

Evaluation of arterial stiffness in cardiac surgical patients using applanation tonometry [PDF]
Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2020 Context: Applanation tonometry enables the noninvasive analysis of arterial pressure wave morphology. Applanation tonometry provides the augmentation index (AIx, %), an index of arterial stiffness that partially reflects arterial-ventricular (A-V ...

Brachial Blood Pressure Invasively and Non-Invasively Obtained Using Oscillometry and Applanation Tonometry: Impact of Mean Blood Pressure Equations and Calibration Schemes on Agreement Levels [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023 The use of oscillometric methods to determine brachial blood pressure (bBP) can lead to a systematic underestimation of the invasively measured systolic (bSBP) and pulse (bPP) pressure levels, together with a significant overestimation of diastolic ...

How to measure intraocular pressure: Schiötz tonometry [PDF]
Community Eye Health Journal, 2008 If glaucoma is diagnosed early, treatment can then be given that may preserve vision. Although raised intraocular pressure (IOP) is not the only sign of glaucoma, the IOP should be checked routinely on all adults attending eye care facilities ...
