Resumo

The graphic method of representing the various phenomena occurring in the body during life, which has been so much developed by MM. Marey and Chauveau of Paris, has placed within our reach great facilities for obtaining an accurate knowledge of the relations, in point of time, of mutually dependent physiological events, and the sphygmograph has be­ come, among others, an instrument familiar to most interested in science. By means of this instrument, a detailed and truthful record can be easily obtained of the modifications in the diameter of any superficial artery, and, as usually constructed, it is intended to be applied to the radial at the wrist.
