A resting reading is 118/76 mmHg. What does 76 describe?
A chart shows 142/90 mmHg after several quiet minutes. What does 142 describe?
A patient has a reading of 124/78 mmHg. Which value is measured while the heart muscle is between contractions?
The reading is 132/84 mmHg. What does the difference between the two values represent?
A resting reading is 106/68 mmHg. What is the pulse pressure for this reading?
A cuff is deflated slowly while a stethoscope is over the artery at the elbow. What does the first tapping sound mark?
During cuff deflation, the tapping sounds fade and then disappear at 74 mmHg. What should that point be recorded as?
The cuff is inflated until no pulse is felt at the wrist. What has the cuff done to the arm artery?
While measuring by palpation, the wrist pulse returns as the cuff is released. Which value is being estimated?
Arterioles across the body narrow while cardiac output stays the same. What happens to arterial pressure?
Major bleeding lowers circulating blood volume. If vessels do not compensate yet, what happens to arterial pressure?
Exercise raises cardiac output while vessel resistance stays unchanged for a moment. What happens to arterial pressure?
Warm skin vessels widen while the heart's output is unchanged. What happens to arterial pressure?
Artery walls become stiffer with age. What change is most likely in the top reading during ventricular ejection?
Severe dehydration reduces plasma volume and venous return. Before compensation, what happens to arterial pressure?
A person stands quickly, and stretch in the carotid sinus drops. What immediate response helps restore pressure?
After a sudden pressure rise, carotid and aortic baroreceptors fire more often. Which autonomic response brings pressure down?
Blood pressure stays low because blood volume is low. Which kidney-linked response helps raise it over hours?
Blood volume is high and atrial walls are stretched. Which response helps lower pressure?
Dehydration increases plasma osmolarity, and ADH acts on the kidneys. What does ADH cause them to do?
