Mean Arterial Pressure And Pulse Pressure - Microlife WatchBP Office ABI Instruction Manual

Special Function (cont.)
MAP (Mean Arterial Pressure)
The WatchBP Office ABI device measures the true
mean arterial pressure (MAP) of the patient. Each
measurement includes a single MAP value. The
average measurement will display the average MAP
value. When viewing in Memory mode, the MAP
value will be displayed with the systolic and diastolic
pressure once every 5 seconds.
The Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) in this device is determined
*
from the maximum peak of the oscillometric envelope curve.

ROUTINE
PP (Pulse Pressure)
The WatchBP Office ABI device provides the pulse
pressure (PP) of the patient: pulse pressure = systolic
- diastolic pressure. Each measurement includes
the calculation of a single PP value. The average
measurement will display the average PP value.
When viewing in Memory mode, the PP value will be
displayed with the systolic/diastolic pressure once
every 5 seconds.
