How it is calculated
A standard atmosphere is 101 325 Pa. A millimetre of mercury is 133,322 Pa. A bar is exactly 100 000 Pa. psi is pounds-force per square inch.
Result = value × factor of the source unit / factor of the target unit

Example
760 mmHg ≈ 101,325 kPa ≈ 1 atm.
Questions
A systolic pressure of 120 is how many kPa?
About 16 kPa. Enter 120 and the unit “millimetres of mercury”.
Are an atmosphere and a bar almost equal?
A bar is slightly smaller: 1 bar = 0,987 atm.
Is kgf/cm² a technical atmosphere?
Yes, about 98 066,5 Pa. It is a separate row in the list.
