mm Hg is used in the UK and also (I believe) in Europe

Subject: [USMA:37937] Australia's blood pressures measured in kilopascals
Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2007 19:27:05 -0600
I read today that part of Australia's metrication process included
recording of
blood pressures in kilopascals instead of millimeters of mercury. Is mm Hg
now
only a U.S. measure? What about Canada? India? South Africa? What about
other
countries?
