Variation in Branches of Brachial Artery
The Brachial artery is continuation of the axillary artey. This artery started from lower border of Tres major muscle, and discends the length of arm, and the near of elbow divided in to ulnar and radial artery. In discection cudavr of a man with 65 yeard old with grants method, we observed the biforcation of the brachial artery was in level of corachobrachialis muscle. The main branches was Br...
متن کاملVariation in Bifurcation Pattern of Brachial Artery
Recognizing the arterial variations of human upper extremities is of potential clinical practice because this area is involved in arterial handling and invasive medical procedure. During dissection of the left upper limb of a 35-year-old male embalmed cadaver, we saw brachial artery bifurcation in the middle third of proximal portion of the arm. Its medial branch descended along the medial side...
متن کاملFlawed measurement of brachial tonometry for calculating aortic pressure?
Letters to the Editor will be published, if suitable, as space permits. They should not exceed 1000 words (typed double-spaced) in length and may be subject to editing or abridgment. The article by Segers et al 1 on aortic-radial wave transmission and amplification casts doubt on the present approach to the calculation of central aortic pressure from the radial artery tonomographic waveform; th...
متن کاملSignificance of pulsatility of brachial artery pressure for blood pressure control.
Few studies have examined predictors of poor blood pressure (BP) control. The aim of this study was to observe the relationship between the pulsatility of brachial artery pressure characterized as pulse pressure/diastolic pressure (PP/DP), suggesting aortic input impedance, and poor BP control. We obtained office BP measurements for 94 patients aged 40-75 years with either office systolic BP (S...
متن کاملAnkle Brachial Pressure Index Correlation with Diastolic Blood Pressure, Dyslipidemia and Anthropometric Measurement in Patients of Essential Hypertension
Background: Hypertension is one of the most common worldwide diseases affecting humans. Due to the associated morbidity and mortality and the cost to the society, it is an important public health challenge. Therefore, health care professionals must not only identify and treat patients with hypertension but must also promote healthy lifestyle and preventive strategies to decrease the prevalence ...
