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.
Multiple blood pressure readings (at least two) spaced 1–2 minutes apart should be obtained to ensure accuracy. [92] Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring over 12 to 24 hours is the most accurate method to confirm the diagnosis. [93] An exception to this is those with very high blood pressure readings especially when there is poor organ ...
As the pressure in the cuff is the same as the pressure produced by the heart, some blood will be able to pass through the upper arm when the pressure in the artery rises during systole. This blood flows in spurts as the pressure in the artery rises above the pressure in the cuff and then drops back down beyond the cuffed region, resulting in ...

CVP reflects the amount of blood returning to the heart and the ability of the heart to pump the blood back into the arterial system. CVP is often a good approximation of right atrial pressure (RAP), [1] although the two terms are not identical, as a pressure differential can sometimes exist between the venae cavae and the right atrium. CVP and ...
