Introduction:

Scopione Riva-Rocci (1863 - 1937) was an Italian internist and pediatrician. Riva-Rocci sphygmomanometer designed by him around 1896 has changed a little over the last 100+ years. The cuff and the mercury column still make the basis of this measurement. A sphygmomanometer is a Greek word that translates into 'pulse pressure meter'.
