Systolic pressure amplification in the arteries of normal subjects.

摘要: The intra-arterial blood pressure was measured in the brachial and posterior tibial arteries 13 normal subjects compared with indirectly using strain-gauge technique 12 × 26 cm occluding cuffs on arm ankle. On arm, average 128/71 mm Hg, auscultatory 123/77 while systolic by 118 Hg. At ankle, 154/72 142 thus demonstrating that is about 25 Hg higher than artery. Indirect measurements of 10 lower corresponding values for both
