The Inter-Arm Diastolic Blood Pressure Difference Induced by One Arm Ischemia: A New Approach to Assess Vascular Endothelia Function
OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether inter-arm diastolic blood pressure difference (DBPl-r) induced by one arm ischemia correlates with flow-mediated dilatation (FMD). METHODS Bilateral arm BPs were simultaneously measured with two automatic devices and right brachial artery diameter (D) was measured by ultrasound technique in 108 subjects (56 hypertensives and 52 normotensives). Following baseline...
متن کاملThe inter-arm blood pressure difference and peripheral vascular disease: cross-sectional study.
BACKGROUND A blood pressure (BP) difference between the upper limbs is often encountered in primary care. Knowledge of its prevalence and importance in the accurate measurement of BP is poor, representing a source of error. Current hypertension guidelines do not emphasize this. OBJECTIVES To establish the prevalence of an inter-arm blood pressure difference (IAD) and explore its association w...
متن کاملInter-arm blood pressure difference in type 2 diabetes: a barrier to effective management?
BACKGROUND Previous studies have identified a substantial prevalence of a blood pressure difference between arms in various populations, but not patients with type 2 diabetes. Recognition of such a difference would be important as a potential cause of underestimation of blood pressure. AIM To measure prevalence of an inter-arm blood pressure difference in patients with type 2 diabetes, and to...
متن کاملBilateral subclavian artery stenosis found by inter-arm blood pressure difference during distal pancreatectomy
provided the original work is properly cited. CC Guidelines [1,2] recommend that the blood pressure (BP) should be measured in both arms at the initial assessment of a patient, and that if there is a difference, the arm with the higher pressure should be used for all future measurements. However, BP is usually measured in the arm that does not have an intravenous (IV) line in it or in the arm t...
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...
