Question

What is the artair mean arterial pressure of 110 over 70 this is actually not there an answer

Answer 1

To calculate the mean arterial pressure (MAP) from a blood pressure reading, you can use the following formula:

\[
\text{MAP} = \text{DBP} + \frac{1}{3}(\text{SBP} - \text{DBP})
\]

Where:
- SBP = Systolic Blood Pressure (the first number, 110 mmHg in this case)
- DBP = Diastolic Blood Pressure (the second number, 70 mmHg in this case)

Given the values:

- SBP = 110 mmHg
- DBP = 70 mmHg

Plugging into the formula:

\[
\text{MAP} = 70 + \frac{1}{3}(110 - 70)
\]
\[
\text{MAP} = 70 + \frac{1}{3}(40)
\]
\[
\text{MAP} = 70 + \frac{40}{3}
\]
\[
\text{MAP} = 70 + 13.33
\]
\[
\text{MAP} \approx 83.33 \text{ mmHg}
\]

Therefore, the mean arterial pressure for a blood pressure of 110 over 70 is approximately 83.33 mmHg.
