Why is the measurement of pulse pressure so important?
Some evidence suggests that pulse pressure is a better predictor of clinical outcome than the systolic or diastolic blood pressure alone. However, using pulse pressure as a clinical predictor or diagnosis tool is complicated because the pulse pressure doesn't provide unique information. Pulse pressure must be calculated from the systolic and diastolic readings. So, saying that someone has an "elevated pulse pressure" is usually the same as saying that they have an "elevated systolic blood pressure," which is already known to be an important clinical finding requiring treatment.
