Question 200 · LEK · C – circulation
The non-invasive methods for cardiac monitoring include non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurement. An additional non-invasive parameter is the pulse pressure (the difference between systolic and diastolic pressure), the normal values for which fall within the range of:
- A. 10-30 mmHg.
- B. 20-40 mmHg.
- C. 30-50 mmHg.
- D. 40-60 mmHg.
- E. 50-70 mmHg.
Hint
Subtract a typical diastolic from a typical systolic pressure in a healthy adult and pick the range centred on that value.
