Ambulatory blood pressure, as opposed to office blood pressure, is the blood pressure over the course of the full 24-hour sleep-wake cycle. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring ( ABPM) measures blood pressure at regular intervals throughout the day and night. It avoids the white coat hypertension effect in which a patient's blood pressure is ...
Digital blood pressure monitor in use. Arterial blood pressure is most commonly measured via a sphygmomanometer, which historically used the height of a column of mercury to reflect the circulating pressure. [1] Blood pressure values are generally reported in millimetres of mercury (mmHg), though modern aneroid and electronic devices do not ...
Pulse pressure is the difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure. [ 1] It is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). It represents the force that the heart generates each time it contracts. Healthy pulse pressure is around 40 mmHg. [ 1][ 2] A pulse pressure that is consistently 60 mmHg or greater is likely to be associated with ...

Blood pressure ( BP) is the pressure of circulating blood against the walls of blood vessels. Most of this pressure results from the heart pumping blood through the circulatory system. When used without qualification, the term "blood pressure" refers to the pressure in a brachial artery, where it is most commonly measured.
D062186. In medicine, the mean arterial pressure ( MAP) is an average calculated blood pressure in an individual during a single cardiac cycle. [ 1] Although methods of estimating MAP vary, a common calculation is to take one-third of the pulse pressure (the difference between the systolic and diastolic pressures ), and add that amount to the ...
