The piston motion reverses and the decompression phase begins. The systolic pressure
is indicated, this time, by the return of the pulse trace.
The pulse rate of the animal is automatically assessed in real time by a pulse rate
counter which picks the signal from the pulse transducer.

In both compression and decompression runs, even the
diastolic, if selected,
is re-
corded as the pressure at which the pulse shows an unmistakable transition from steady
to decreasing amplitude.
See Figure 3 “Sample of a Graph” and more details about graph and captions on para-
graph 7.3-Starting the Pressure Measurement.
You will notice the pressure indications are sets of three digits, e.g., 070 – 130 – 180,
marked on the lower edge of the recording chart in vertical pattern, for economy of
space, as in the Chinese signs.
