some are...
>barometer is an instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure.
>manometer is a pressure measuring instrument, usually limited to measuring pressures lower than atmospheric. It is often used to refer specifically to liquid column hydrostatic instruments.
>Pitot tube is a pressure measuring instrument used to measure fluid flow velocity, and more specifically, used to determine the airspeed of an aircraft.
>anemometer is a device for measuring the velocity or the pressure of the wind, and is one instrument used in a weather station. The term is derived from the Greek word "anemos" meaning wind.
>tire-pressure gauge is a pressure gauge used to measure the pressure of tires on a vehicle. Since tires are rated for specific loads at certain pressure, it is important to keep the pressure of the tire at the optimal amount.
>Sphygmomanometer or blood pressure meter is a device used to measure blood pressure, comprising an inflatable cuff to restrict blood flow, and a mercury or mechanical manometer to measure the pressure.

Basically all pressure can be measured with a gauge. Air pressure, water pressure. Blood Pressure. Where a vacum is present. The gauge is a Compound Gauge. Example of a compound gauge has 0 - 300psi and 0 - -30. There are many types of gauges...

The instruments that measure air pressure are called barometers.

Here are three:
column of mercury (Torricelli, I think, barometer)
sphygomanometer (blood pressure (BP))
strain guage (used in scales that give electronic readout)
