(II) A physician judges the health of a heart by measuring the pressure with which it pumps blood. If the physician mistakenly attaches the pressurized cuff around a standing patient’s calf (about 1 m below the heart) instead of the arm (Fig. 10–42), what error (in Pa) would be introduced in the heart’s blood pressure measurement?
