Medical Measuring Venous Pressure to 5mm Hg

AI Thread Summary
Venous pressure in humans is typically around 5 mm Hg. To measure this pressure accurately, a method such as using a catheter inserted into a vein can be employed. The discussion also highlights the importance of context when discussing venous pressure measurements, as the method may vary depending on the specific circumstances or conditions being examined. A reference to a Wikipedia article on blood pressure is provided as a resource for further information.
