SYS Systolic Blood Pressure
DIA Diastolic Blood Pressure
DSD The difference between Systolic Blood Pressure and Diastolic
Blood Pressure.
Exhaust This means "releasing the cuff air as soon as possible".
Constant exhaust This means "releasing the cuff air at a constant depressurization rate".
Exhaust velocity This means the rate of depressurizing the cuff air.
During a measurement This means "a period between the start of cuff inflation and the
end of exhausting the air".
