Mean arterial pressure (MAP) measures the flow, resistance, and pressure in your arteries during one heartbeat. We’ll go over what’s considered normal, high, and low before going over the ...

The bottom number is the diastolic pressure, the pressure blood exerts on the arteries between heartbeats (when the heart is at rest). Healthy blood pressures range from 90/60 to 120/80.

The interaction between higher mean blood pressure and higher variability in blood pressure was associated with faster changes in annual deviation in both mean arterial (β, 0.02 dB/y per 1-mm Hg ...

Overall, the researchers assessed 1,729 patients (mean age, 64 years; 43% women; 72% AKI; mean MELD score = 23) with 151,734 MAP observations — a mean of 136 observations per patient in 72 hours.

In a double-blind, randomized trial with a 2-by-2 factorial design, we evaluated a mean arterial blood-pressure target of 63 mm Hg as compared with 77 mm Hg in comatose adults who had been ...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension is defined as a sustained elevation of pulmonary arterial pressure to more than 25 mm Hg at rest or to more than 30 mm Hg with exercise, with a mean pulmonary ...
