  2. Marker interface pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marker_interface_pattern

    The marker interface pattern is a design pattern in computer science, used with languages that provide run-time type information about objects. It provides a means to associate metadata with a class where the language does not have explicit support for such metadata.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Portsmouth sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portsmouth_sign

    Portsmouth sign is most often noted clinically when reviewing observations charts which often plot SBP and HR on the same axis, allowing direct observation of situations in which SBP falls below HR. Patients exhibiting this sign are likely to be significantly fluid depleted and in urgent need of aggressive fluid resuscitation.

  5. Blood pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure

    Blood pressure (BP) is the pressure of circulating blood against the walls of blood vessels. Most of this pressure results from the heart pumping blood through the circulatory system. When used without qualification, the term "blood pressure" refers to the pressure in a brachial artery, where it is most commonly measured.

  6. N2 chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N2_Chart

    N 2 chart example. [1] The N 2 chart or N 2 diagram (pronounced "en-two" or "en-squared") is a chart or diagram in the shape of a matrix, representing functional or physical interfaces between system elements. It is used to systematically identify, define, tabulate, design, and analyze functional and physical interfaces.

  7. Vital signs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vital_signs

    Blood pressure is recorded as two readings: a higher systolic pressure, which occurs during the maximal contraction of the heart, and the lower diastolic or resting pressure. [11] In adults, a normal blood pressure is 120/80, with 120 being the systolic and 80 being the diastolic reading. [12] Usually, the blood pressure is read from the left ...

  8. Interface control document - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_control_document

    An ICD is the umbrella document over the system interfaces; examples of what these interface specifications should describe include: The inputs and outputs of a single system, documented in individual SIRS (Software Interface Requirements Specifications) and HIRS (Hardware Interface Requirements Specifications) documents, would fall under "The Wikipedia Interface Control Document".

  9. Hypotension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypotension

    Hypotension, also known as low blood pressure, is a cardiovascular condition characterized by abnormally reduced blood pressure. [1] Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood [2] and is indicated by two numbers, the systolic blood pressure (the top number) and the diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number), which are the ...
