Hill) None of the sphygmomanometers introduced prior to 1896comphed with all the essential requirements for general useby physicians; reasonable accuracy, freedom from subjectiveerrors, ease of application, and portability. The more exactinstruments, such as Mossos, were very cumbersome; the lightand compact ones had all the errors of the v. Basch apparatus,and frequently more. This technical difficulty was first over-come by Riva-Rocci, and by Hill,^ the former in an instrument. Fig. 12.—Ceoss-section of aem,eiva-eoooi akmlet.
