What cause a person's pulse?
A pulse in a person's arteries is felt as a wave of high pressure blood comes coursing through the vessel immediately after a heart beat. More specifically, the arterial pulse is felt as the jump in blood pressure from the diastolic pressure up to the systolic pressure. A person who has a narrow pulse width; for example 110/100 will likely have a weaker palpable pulse compared to a person with similar physique and a wider pulse pressure like 140/80.
What is pulse pressure?
Pulse pressure is the pressure that is felt when feeling the pulse. Measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg), the pressure difference between the systolic and diastolic pressures is the pressure change to create the pulse, which is the pulse pressure.
Pulse pressure Is a blood pressure reading of 177 over 65 a pulse rate of 66 and a pulse pressure of 112 a problem?
terrible
What does it mean when systolic and diastolic pressures are close together?
Your heart is about to explode and you die
How do you calculate pulse pressure?
PP= SP - DS Pulse Pressure is equal to Systolic Blood Pressure minus Diastolic Blood Pressure.
How do you determine a person's diastolic blood pressure?
MAP=diastolic pressure+(pulse pressure/3) so... MAP - (pulse pressure/3)= diastolic pressure
If systoic pressure is 112 and diastolic pressure is 80 what is the pulse pressure?
A blood pressure of 107/74 and pulse of 80 is within normal limits (WNL).
What is the systolic pressure minus diastolic pressure?
pulse pressure
What effect will a allergic reaction have on blood pressure and pulse?
high blood pressure and low pulse rate
How do you calculate the width of pulse in pulse position modulation?
The width of the pulse in PPM is not important, but is usually very narrow and constant in any given PPM system.
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.
Systolic blood pressure minus diastolic blood pressure is known as?
Pulse pressure.it should ideally be about 40.when it increases it can be risk for heart and kidney.it is normal for pulse pressure to rise during exercise.
