Normal human daily Blood Pressure Range can vary widely, so any single blood pressure monitor reading is not reliable. BP monitor readings must be taken at different times of day, to determine AVERAGE blood pressure levels over time. What is important is your AVERAGE BP, or MAP (Mean Arterial...

Intracranial pressure should be kept <20 mmHg and cerebral perfusion >60 mmHg (seeBox 1). Box 1 ICU management of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) • Airway management • Investigation and monitoring • Blood pressure (BP) control – controversial ...
Stroke is a principal cause of mortality in China and Japan. High systolic blood pressure (SBP) was considered a chief risk factor for stroke mortality. Herein, we evaluated temporal trends of high SBP-attributable stroke mortality in China and Japan bet
Hypertension is a pathological condition of persistent high blood pressure (BP) of which the underlying neural mechanisms remain obscure. Here, we show that the afferent nerves in perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT) contribute to maintain pathological high B
Blood Pressure Monitoring in Cardiovascular Medicine and Therapeutics Francesco Portaluppi MD & Michael H. Smolensky PhD Part of the book series: Contemporary Cardiology ((CONCARD)) 171 Accesses Abstract Modern medicine emphasizes the concept of homeostasis, constancy of the intern milieu. Accordingly...
High (110 mm Hg) and low (60 mm Hg) levels of diastolic BP were related to faster cognitive decline over 5 years of follow-up (z = –2.51, p = 0.012). CAMCOG scores also showed an inverted U-shaped dependence on pulse pressure (z = –2.29, p = 0.022)."(1) Perhaps, therefore...
.70Home blood pressure measurement is also useful for the diagnosis of white coat or masked hypertension and for making a diagnosis of resistant hypertension and deciding the therapeutic strategy.71As home blood pressure can be measured multiple times over a long period, it is also useful for ...
A blood pressure system which cycles through an inflation cycle and a deflation cycle during which systolic and diastolic blood pressure in a patient is automatically measured. The blood pressure system basically comprises an inflatable pressure cuff system for accomplishing occlusion and the subsequent ...
