Inter-arm and Inter-leg Systolic Blood Pressure Differences in Aortic Dissection
The essential feature of an aortic dissection is a tear in the intimal layer of the aorta, followed by formation and propagation of a subintimal hematoma. It is a medical emergency with a high mortality rate if appropriate management is not instituted immediately. There are two different systems classifying the aortic dissections. The Stanford classification divides dissections into two types: ...
متن کاملThe normal range for inter-arm differences in blood pressure.
OBJECTIVE to establish the mean and normal range for the difference in simultaneous systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements between the right and left arm. SUBJECTS 462 subjects, age range 20-89 years, in sinus rhythm and with no history of stroke, 98 of whom had a history of cardiovascular disease or were taking vasoactive medication. METHODS four simultaneous recordings of bloo...
متن کاملAssociation of Inter-Arm Systolic Blood Pressure Difference with Coronary Atherosclerotic Disease Burden Using Calcium Scoring
PURPOSE There are no sufficient data on the correlation between inter-arm blood pressure (BP) difference and coronary atherosclerosis found using coronary artery calcium score (CACS). We aimed to investigate if the increased difference in inter-arm BP is independently associated with severity of CACS. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who had ≥3 cardiovascular risk factors or an intermediate Fra...
متن کاملInter-arm Differences in Simultaneous Blood Pressure Measurements in Ambulatory Patients without Cardiovascular Diseases
BACKGROUND It has traditionally been known that there is normally a difference in blood pressure (BP) between the two arms; there is at least 20 mm Hg difference in the systolic blood pressure (SBP) and 10 mm Hg difference in the diastolic blood pressure (DBP). However, recent epidemiologic studies have shown that there are between-arm differences of < 5 mm Hg in simultaneous BP measurements. T...
متن کاملThe Prevalence and Influence Factors of Inter-Ankle Systolic Blood Pressure Difference in Community Population
AIM The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of interankle systolic blood pressure difference (sIAND) and its influencing factors in community population. METHODS This study included 2849 (65.1±9.4 y) subjects. Blood pressure (BPs) of four limbs was simultaneously measured with 4 electronic sphygmomanometers after 10 min rest in supine position. The difference of systolic BP (S...
