  2. Tilt table test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt_table_test

    Tilt table testing could provoke fainting or syncope. It is the purpose of the test to provoke these symptoms, in order to aid in diagnosis. [4] It may not be appropriate, or indeed even possible, to stop the test before fainting occurs, as the drop in blood pressure or pulse rate associated with fainting can come on in seconds.

  3. Segmental blood pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmental_blood_pressure

    Segmental blood pressure is used to measure actual limb blood pressure, to assess and locate arterial occlusion. On the legs, pressure is measured at the ankle, below the knee, above the knee, and mid-thigh. On the arm, measurements are taken at the wrist, below the elbow, above the elbow, and mid-upper arm. [1]

  4. Iterative deepening A* - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterative_deepening_A*

    Iterative deepening A* (IDA*) is a graph traversal and path search algorithm that can find the shortest path between a designated start node and any member of a set of goal nodes in a weighted graph. It is a variant of iterative deepening depth-first search that borrows the idea to use a heuristic function to conservatively estimate the ...

  5. Peripheral vascular examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_vascular...

    On inspection the clinician looks for signs of: trauma; previous surgery ()muscle wasting/muscle asymmetry; edema (swelling) erythema (redness); ulcers – arterial ulcers tend to be on the borders / sides of the foot, neuropathic ulcers on the plantar surface of the foot, venous ulcers tend on be on the medial aspect of the leg superior to the medial malleolus.

  6. Ankle–brachial pressure index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankle–brachial_pressure...

    The ankle-brachial pressure index (ABPI) or ankle-brachial index (ABI) is the ratio of the blood pressure at the ankle to the blood pressure in the upper arm (brachium). Compared to the arm, lower blood pressure in the leg suggests blocked arteries due to peripheral artery disease (PAD).

  7. Pseudohypertension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudohypertension

    Pseudohypertension, also known as pseudohypertension in the elderly, noncompressibility artery syndrome, and Osler's sign (or Osler sign) of pseudohypertension is a falsely elevated blood pressure reading obtained through sphygmomanometry due to calcification of blood vessels which cannot be compressed. [1]

  8. MTD(f) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTD(f)

    MTD(f) is a shortened form of MTD(n,f) which stands for Memory-enhanced Test Driver with node ‘n’ and value ‘f’. [1] The efficacy of this paradigm depends on a good initial guess, and the supposition that the final minimax value lies in a narrow window around the guess (which becomes an upper/lower bound for the search from root).

  9. Blood pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure_measurement

    A more accurate value of systolic blood pressure can be obtained with a sphygmomanometer and palpating the radial pulse. [11] Methods using constitutive models have been proposed to measure blood pressure from radial artery pulse. [citation needed] The diastolic blood pressure cannot be estimated by this method. The American Heart Association ...
