25 Ιουλ 2024 · How to calculate pulse pressure. When you check your blood pressure, you get two numbers, the systolic pressure (the top number) and the diastolic pressure (the bottom number). The systolic pressure measures how much pressure is on your arteries each time your heart squeezes.
Pulse pressure arises from the interaction of cardiac ejection (stroke volume) and the properties of the arterial circulation. An increased stiffness of the aorta and large arteries leads to an increase in PP through a reduction in arterial compliance and effects on wave reflection.
1 Φεβ 2002 · In patients <50 years of age, DBP was the strongest predictor. The age-period 50 to 59 years was a transition period when all 3 blood pressure indices were comparable predictors, and from 60 years of age on, DBP was negatively related to CHD risk so that PP became superior to SBP.
28 Μαρ 2019 · Arterial stiffness is the major cause of elevated systolic BP (SBP) and pulse pressure (PP, SBP minus diastolic BP [DBP]) as well as lower DBP in older adults. Moreover, these BP age-related alterations are powerful determinants of major cardiovascular disease (CVD) events and all-cause mortality. 18–20
3 Νοε 2021 · Pulse pressure is an indicator of how stiff or flexible the arteries are and how well the heart pumps blood. Like high blood pressure, high pulse pressure is linked to heart disease. Find out why you should monitor your pulse pressure, what causes abnormal values, and how you can reduce yours if it is too high.
14 Μαρ 2023 · When measuring blood pressure, take the measurement after standing up. Your blood pressure shouldn't drop more than 20 mmHg, and you shouldn't feel dizzy after standing up.
1 Σεπ 1999 · Elevated pulse pressure is usually regarded as a manifestation of increased arterial stiffness. But there are other diseases in which pulse pressure is elevated and in which increased pulse pressure may contribute to vascular and cardiac events.
