Determinants of Neonatal Blood Pressure [PDF]

Current Hypertension Reports, 2013
Blood pressure (BP) measurements have been increasingly used across neonatal intensive care units to determine and monitor hemodynamic status in neonates. A number of studies have attempted to derive normative blood pressure data in both preterm and term infants.

Clinical Utility of Blood Pressure Measurement Using the Newer Palpatory Method for Both Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2020
Background: Blood pressure (BP) measurement being a part of clinical examination gives a fair idea about the hemodynamic status. The auscultatory method is considered as a gold standard, a simple, noninvasive way to measure BP in patients as well as in ...

Systolic Blood Pressure Determinants [PDF]

Annals of Clinical Hypertension, 2017
Hypertension and blood pressure are closely related, and hypertension is directly related with stroke. There are different type of blood pressures such as basal, diastolic, maximum, mean arterial, systolic, mean central venous. The present report examines the determinants of systolic blood pressure for two different groups of cardiac patients.

Inter-arm blood pressure difference and cardiovascular risk estimation in primary care: a pilot study

BJGP Open, 2022
Background: Systolic inter-arm differences (IAD) in blood pressure (BP) contribute independently to cardiovascular risk estimates. This can be used to refine predicted risk and guide personalised interventions.

Genome-wide scan identifies CDH13 as a novel susceptibility locus contributing to blood pressure determination in two European populations

Human Molecular Genetics, 2009
Hypertension is a complex disease that affects a large proportion of adult population. Although approximately half of the inter-individual variance in blood pressure (BP) level is heritable, identification of genes responsible for its regulation has ...
