Influence of short-term blood pressure variability on blood pressure determinations. [PDF]
Hypertension, 1992 To evaluate the effect of blood pressure variability on Riva Rocci Korotkoff blood pressure determinations, we studied the intra-arterial pressure during Riva Rocci Korotkoff determinations in 25 patients. In 50 measurements with a cuff deflation rate of 2.5 mm Hg/sec, the systolic intra-arterial pressure at Korotkoff phase 1 was 2.1 (95% confidence ...
