Does the sound of blood pressure cuff pump turn you on

For me the best part of a bp examination is when the nurse/doctor squeezes the the cuff pump and the distinctive hissing sound it makes as it takes in air to the cuff, the cuff tightening my arm further turns me on, whenever I watch a blood pressure exam video I pay careful attention to the pump sounds, If it doesn't have them sounds I stop watching immediately, pumps of different sphygmomanometer make different sounds , I prefer mercury sphygmomanometer.

Hell yes. Love all the sounds associated with blood pressure determination.

Definitely.

I’m totally in - blood pressure just has it all. The visual of the apparatus, the sounds of the inflation and Velcro, the tactile nature of the smooth material and the rising tightness on the skin. It just hits all the right senses in all the right ways for me.

Oh yes

I have never thought about it until reading this thread so I will have to say no.

Having my blood pressure taken totally turns me on. The whole thing from having the cuff placed around my bare arm, the stethoscope being tucked under and the coldness on my skin, to it being pumped up an the sound of the air being squeezed and getting tighter and tighter.

I haven't really thought about it until this thread, but…. probably yes? A lot of medical fetish stuff, for me, comes down the the tiny details like this.

Yes! Absolutely

Heck no! I have white coat syndrome…

Not so much. Like Fawkes, I have white coat syndrome.

Now, the sound of exam table paper crinkling will get me going every time.

And lately I've come to react strongly to the sound of velcro being opened, because our internist switched to cloth gowns with velcro closures.

No white coat syndrome here - but I feel a bit apprehensive when they roll in the BP machine or pull out the cuff. My BP is managed by meds and and almost always registers in the normal range - guess my apprehension is that I'll get a high reading. Maybe a high reading once in a while is a good thing because it motivates me to work out more, eat healthier and drink less!!~! 😃

I love the sound of a blood pressure pumping, manual or automatic, but I also love the feel of it being wrapped around my arm and then squeezing it tight.

YES!! I love how different models have different sounds. My favorite is the classic Baum bulb which sorta goes SPLOOSH SPLOOSH SPLOOSH SPLOOSH and BAM, they have you up to 180 mmHg. And, like others have said, I love everything about the experience. Biggest turn on for me by far is just having my blood pressure taken manually.

EDIT: removed the brackets from the sound effect because apparently the server thought I was trying to enter HTML. Sorry
