Emergency Medicine Journal, 2016
In medicine, certain manoeuvres are established so deeply that they are dogmatically passed on from generation to generation of physicians and rewritten in textbooks without being questioned. A particularly good example is cricoid pressure (CP), used to prevent gastric regurgitation and aspiration during rapid sequence induction and intubation (RSII ...

Diastolic pressure, systolic pressure, or pulse pressure?

Current Hypertension Reports, 2000
Diastolic pressure, systolic pressure, and pulse pressure have all been assigned the role of the best predictor of cardiovascular events during the 20th century. At the dawn of the new millennium, concepts that draw attention to vascular mechanics reconcile the seemingly conflicting results of epidemiologic studies, better define the hypertensive ...

Effect of Airway Pressure on Pericardial Pressure

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1989
Abstract The effect of applied positive airway pressure or PEEP on pericardial pressure was examined in closed-chest, anesthetized dogs with normal lungs and in animals with oleic acid-induced lung injury. Both groups were studied before and after vascular volume loading by dextran infusion.

Pressure Under Pressure

Science, 2005
GENETICS Hypertension is an extremely common disorder that, left untreated, can lead to stroke, heart disease, and kidney failure. Individuals of African descent are at greater risk of developing high blood pressure than are those of European descent, and this may reflect adaptations to distinct environmental selection pressures experienced by ...
