Pulsus Paradoxicus Pulsus ParadoxicusThe inspiratory diminution in systolic arterial pressureexceeds 10 mmHg.To measure pulsus paradoxus, a sphygmomanometer
sphygmomanometer is employed for blood pressuremeasurement in the standard fashion except that the cuff isdeflated more slowly than usual. During deflation, the firstKorotkoff sounds are audible only during expiration, butwith further deflation, Korotkoff sounds are heardthroughout the respiratory cycle. The difference betweenthe systolic pressure at which the first Korotkoff soundsare heard during expiration and the pressure at which theyare heard throughout the respiratory cycle quantifies pulsus
paradoxus.
