Comparison of arm and calf blood pressure

To reheat, or to not reheat: that is the question: The efficacy of a local reheating protocol on mechanisms of cutaneous vasodilatation

“…Through direct (Park and Guntheroth, 1970) and indirect (Sareen et al, 2012) methods it has previously been demonstrated that supine mean arterial pressure does not differ between the arm and the leg. Blood pressure was measured through oscillometry (BPTru Medical Devices, Coquitlam, BC Canada) in the contra-lateral arm every 5 min throughout the duration of the study protocol.…”

The contribution of sensory nerves to cutaneous vasodilatation of the forearm and leg to local skin heating

“…Direct (Park and Guntheroth 1970) and indirect (Sareen et al 2012) methods demonstrate that supine mean arterial pressure (MAP) does not differ between the arm and the leg. MAP was calculated as:…”

The contribution of sensory nerves to the onset threshold for cutaneous vasodilatation during gradual local skin heating of the forearm and leg

“…Direct (Park and Guntheroth, 1970) and indirect (Sareen et al, 2012) methods demonstrate that supine mean arterial pressure (MAP) does not differ between the arm and the leg. MAP was calculated as: 2 Á diastolic blood pressure þ systolic blood pressure ð Þ Ä 3 ð Þ…”
