Abstract
A medical manometer replaces the conventional rigid vertical graduated cylinder with a flexible, graduated tube which is sufficiently pliable that it may be bent to drain the fluid collected during use. This flexibility further obviates the need for a stopcock or other type of valve, resulting in a device which is significantly lighter in weight and much more conducive to disposability. The improved manometer is specifically intended for use in measuring cerebro-spinal fluid pressure, in which case the device's simplicity and flexibility increase accuracy in positioning and minimize patient discomfort.
