The effect of posture on blood pressure measurement in pregnant and non-pregnant subjects was studied. In non-pregnant patients undergoing cardiac catheterization, central blood pressure remained unaltered with a change from the supine to the lateral position. However in all subjects studied, an apparent decrease in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure occurred when measured in the upper arm in the lateral position. This fall is artifactual and does not represent a change in blood pressure. It is concluded that blood pressure measurements in the lateral position are inaccurate.
研究了姿势对孕妇和非孕妇血压测量的影响。在接受心脏导管插入术的非孕妇患者中,从仰卧位改为侧卧位时,中心血压保持不变。然而,在所有研究对象中,当在上臂于侧卧位测量时,收缩压和舒张压均出现明显下降。这种下降是人为造成的,并不代表血压的变化。得出的结论是,侧卧位的血压测量不准确。
