a consistent elevation in pressure equal to or greater than 140/90 mm Hg. A constant elevation of blood pressure can result in cardiac and/or arterial dysfunctions such as congestive heart failure and stroke

Hypertension [physiology of taking a blood pressure]

Hypotension [physiology of taking a blood pressure]

The sounds produced by the turbulent blood

Korotkoff sounds [physiology of taking a blood pressure]

a measure of the average arterial pressure within the systemic arterial system. A direct measure of MAP requires knowing cardiac output and the resistance to flow within the arteries. These measurements require invasive techniques to accomplish, but it is possible to determine an indirect calculation of MAP using the following equation: *MAP = diastolic pressure + (pulse pressure/3)* Normal MAP is between 70-110 mm Hg.

Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) [pulse pressure and mean arterial pressure (MAP)]

the palpable expansion of arterial walls during ventricular systole

Pulse [pulse/pulse examination]

the difference between the systolic and diastolic pressures and is considered to be the 'working pressure' of the heart. The normal range is between 30-40 mm Hg.

Pulse pressure [pulse pressure and mean arterial pressure (MAP)]

he number of palpable vessel surges counted per minute and correlates to the number of ventricular contractions in one minute. To increase efficiency in taking a pulse a pulse can be taken for 30 seconds and then multiplied by 2, or taken for 15 seconds and multiplied by 4.

Pulse rate [pulse/pulse examination]

pulse pressure formula

SV/DV

Venous pressure is affected by a variety of factors, including intrathoracic pressure changes. An increase in intrathoracic pressure can be induced by an action known as a Valsalva maneuver. The Valsalva maneuver is performed by forcefully attempting to exhale air against a closed airway. The classic example of a Valsalva maneuver is straining during defecation.

Valsalva maneuver [venous pressure and Valsalva maneuver]

(Pv) is the pressure of blood in the veins. Along with ventricular contraction, a low venous pressure maintains the blood pressure gradient that drives blood through the cardiovascular system. Although it is not possible to measure venous pressure directly, the procedure outlined below gives a reasonable estimate. Normal venous pressure within dorsal veins of the hand varies from 30-40mm Hg.

Venous pressure [venous pressure and Valsalva maneuver]

X-axis [variables, graphs and relationships]

The dependent variable and its values are placed along the vertical or Y- axis.

Y- axis [variables, graphs and relationships]

a buildup of plaque in arterial walls. Rigidity of elastic arteries from atherosclerosis reduces the ability of these vessels to expand during systole, which elevates the systolic pressure. This elevation of systolic pressure along with the diasolic pressure remaining constant, results in the pulse pressure increasing. This condition can lead to intermittent blood flow to systemic capillaries.

atherosclerosis [pulse pressure and mean arterial pressure (MAP)]

taken by palpating the brachial artery on the medial side of the arm. It is easily palpated just medial to the bicep muscle tendon near the elbow joint.

brachial pulse [pulse/pulse examination]

taken by palpating the carotid artery just medial to the sternocleidomastoid muscle in the neck slightly inferior to the mandible. It is important to take the pulse on one side only because palpating both carotid arteries can lead to a drop in blood pressure.

carotid pulse [pulse/pulse examination]

A variable whose value may be determined by the value of the independent variable

taken by palpating the popliteal artery in the popliteal fossa (posterior knee).

popliteal pulse [pulse/pulse examination]

taken by placing the patient's hand in a supine position and palpating the radial artery on the anterior side of the wrist. It is easily palpated in the anterior wrist halfway between the flexor tendons and the radius bone.

radial pulse [pulse/pulse examination]

The rhythm is recorded as regular or irregular, which correlates with the rhythm of heart contractions.

regularity of rhythm [pulse/pulse examination]

a narrowed aortic valve opening, called a stenosis. In this case, the heart cannot eject the normal volume of blood through the aortic valve into the aorta. Other reasons for a decreased pulse pressure include CHF, hypovolemic shock (blood loss), and other forms of shock.

stenosis [pulse pressure and mean arterial pressure (MAP)]

The strength is recorded as weak or strong.

strength of the pulse [pulse/pulse examination]

The larger number, which is the numerator of the recording, is the systolic pressure. This is the pressure exerted by the blood against the artery wall during ventricular systole.
