pressure reading
What barometers show
A pressure reading is the numerical value obtained when measuring pressure in a system—whether blood pressure, tire pressure, atmospheric pressure, or industrial equipment.
The term emphasizes the act of taking or recording the measurement: The nurse took a pressure reading, Check the pressure reading on the gauge.
Abnormal readings often signal problems requiring attention.
