It was found that use of the narrow cuff provided values higher than those obtained with the adult cuff; use of the thigh cuff produced value lower than those obtained with the adult cuff. These data, and a careful review of the literature, reveal the fundamental nature of the effect of the ratio of cuff width to member circumference with respect to the accuracy of indirect blood pressure measurements.

The values for max VCF, VCF at peak stress, mean VCF, and peak stress are in general agreement with those observed with previous methods; the separation between normal and abnormal LV function appears to be good. The method permits frequent observations to be performed in a single patient, which is of particular value during acute interventions. Data from a small number of interventions suggest that VCF in man is relatively insensitive to acute changes in preload, is inversely affected by changes in afterload and appears sensitive to inotropic stimulation. Although VCF seems to be a good index of LV performance, its sensitivity to afterload might, at times, limit its usefulness.</p>","PeriodicalId":75677,"journal":{"name":"Cardiovascular Research Center bulletin","volume":"13 4","pages":"63-77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1975-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12318153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
