For patients undergoing noncardiac surgery, neurocognitive outcomes do not differ with hypotension-avoidance and hypertension-avoidance strategies.

Mean arterial pressure is the average pressure during the entire cardiac cycle and integrates the area under the arterial pressure waveform. The value of MAP depends on the shape and size of the ...

We therefore used continuous bedside recordings of mean arterial pressure (MAP; from an indwelling arterial catheter) and cerebral perfusion [using the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS ...

In early adolescence, the offspring of mothers who smoked during pregnancy have increased risk for hypertension in early adolescence.

A large international study has found that two different approaches to managing blood pressure in older adults undergoing non ...

IABP systems are typically inserted within the multidisciplinary environment that is the cardiac catheterization laboratory. The specific role of the physiologist during IABP insertion is to ...

They found that in people under the age of 50, diastolic blood pressure offered extra helpful information about their risk ...

and MAP for all 11 150 men (mean age, 52.3 years) were 124.1±11.1, 77.5±7.1, 46.6±8.8, and 93.0±7.6 mm Hg, respectively. Table 1 compares the blood pressure parameters and other baseline ...

Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) responses to hindlimb muscle contraction were measured in decerebrate Sprague-Dawley rats treated with either a normal 0.6% ...

In this approach, doctors aimed to keep the patient’s blood pressure at a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 80 mm Hg or higher. On the day of surgery and for two days afterward, doctors ...
