Pulse Pressure Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pulse Pressure = 3*(Mean Arterial Pressure-Diastolic Blood Pressure)
PP = 3*(MAP-DP)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Pulse Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Pulse Pressure is the difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
Mean Arterial Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - The Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) is the average arterial pressure throughout one cardiac cycle, systole, and diastole.
Diastolic Blood Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - The diastolic blood pressure measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart rests between beats.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mean Arterial Pressure: 11999 Pascal --> 11999 Pascal No Conversion Required
Diastolic Blood Pressure: 10532 Pascal --> 10532 Pascal No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

PP = 3*(MAP-DP) --> 3*(11999-10532)

Evaluating ... ...

PP = 4401

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4401 Pascal --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4401 Pascal <-- Pulse Pressure

Poiseuille's Equation for Blood Flow

Go Blood Flow = ((Final Pressure of System-Initial Pressure of Blood)*pi*(Radius of Artery^4)/(8*Length of the Capillary Tube*Density))

Pulse Wave Velocity using Moens-Korteweg equation

Go Pulse Wave Velocity = sqrt((Elastic (tangent) Modulus at Blood Pressure P*Thickness of Artery)/(2*Blood Density*Radius of Artery))

Pressure Drop using Hagen-Poiseuille equation

Go Difference in Pressure = (8*Viscosity of Blood*Length of the Capillary Tube*Blood Flow)/(pi*(Radius of Artery^4))

Elastic (Tangent) Modulus using Hughes equation

Go Elastic (tangent) Modulus at Blood Pressure P = Elastic Modulus at Zero Blood Pressure*exp(Material Coefficient of Artery*Blood Pressure)

Frank Bramwell-Hill equation for Pulse Wave Velocity

Go Pulse Wave Velocity = sqrt((Volume*Difference in Pressure)/(Blood Density*Change in Volume))

Mean Velocity of Blood

Go Mean Velocity of Blood = (Viscosity of Blood*Reynolds Number)/(Blood Density*Diameter of Artery)

Reynolds Number of Blood in Vessel

Go Reynolds Number = (Blood Density*Mean Velocity of Blood*Diameter of Artery)/Viscosity of Blood

Viscosity of Blood

Go Viscosity of Blood = (Blood Density*Diameter of Artery*Mean Velocity of Blood)/Reynolds Number

Pulsatility Index

Go Pulsatility Index = (Peak Systolic Velocity-Minimum Diastolic Velocity)/Average Velocity in terms of Cardiac Cycle

Mean Arterial Pressure

Go Mean Arterial Pressure = Diastolic Blood Pressure+((1/3)*(Systolic Blood Pressure-Diastolic Blood Pressure))

Pulse Pressure

Go Pulse Pressure = 3*(Mean Arterial Pressure-Diastolic Blood Pressure)

Rate of Mean Blood Flow

Go Blood Flow = (Blood Velocity*Cross Sectional Area of Artery)

Pulse Pressure Formula

Pulse Pressure = 3*(Mean Arterial Pressure-Diastolic Blood Pressure)
PP = 3*(MAP-DP)

What is pulse pressure?

Pulse pressure is the difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure. It is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). It represents the force that the heart generates each time it contracts. Resting blood pressure is normally approximately 120/80 mmHg, which yields a pulse pressure of approximately 40 mmHg.

How to Calculate Pulse Pressure?

Pulse Pressure calculator uses Pulse Pressure = 3*(Mean Arterial Pressure-Diastolic Blood Pressure) to calculate the Pulse Pressure, The Pulse Pressure formula is defined as three times the difference between mean arterial pressure and diastolic blood pressure. Pulse Pressure is denoted by PP symbol.

How to calculate Pulse Pressure using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Pulse Pressure, enter Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) & Diastolic Blood Pressure (DP) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Pulse Pressure calculation can be explained with given input values -> 4401 = 3*(11999-10532).
