Abstract
A detailed description of this new simple pneumoplethysmograph utilizing an electronic transducer is presented. It is valuable in clinical work as it can record systolic blood pressure at various points on the extremities, volume pulsations of the toe or finger, relative blood flow, potential blood flow, peripheral resistance, vasomotor activity, and other vascular phenomena.
