Arterial D Lateral

Blood pressure (BP) is a measure of the force with which blood presses against the walls of the arteries. It is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and is an important parameter for assessing a person's health.

Blood pressure is divided into two types: systolic and diastolic. Systolic pressure is the pressure created when the heart contracts, pushing blood out of the heart and into the arteries. Diastolic pressure is the pressure that is maintained in the arteries between heartbeats.

One of the indicators of normal blood pressure is diastolic lateral pressure (DBP). This is the pressure that is measured on the side wall of the artery, usually at the wrist or ankle.

DBP is an important indicator for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension (high blood pressure) and atherosclerosis (clogged arteries). DBD can be used to determine the risk of stroke and myocardial infarction.

To measure DBP, special devices are used - sphygmomanometers. They measure pressure on the side of the arteries, which provides more accurate results than measuring pressure on other parts of the body.

Measuring DBD has its advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, DBD allows a more accurate assessment of the state of the cardiovascular system and the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. On the other hand, measuring blood pressure on other parts of the body may be less accurate than measuring blood pressure on other parts of the body, as it depends on many factors such as body position, stress level, etc.

Overall, DBP measurement is an important tool for the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disease and can be used in combination with other methods to obtain a more complete picture of cardiovascular health.



Lateral blood pressure is determined at the moment in time when the heart, during systole (contraction), exerts the greatest pressure on the internal organs and vessels. In this case, the index finger of the patient’s left hand is on the left carotid artery. This is due to the fact that during systole there is a rush
