MAP

by Joep2, Aug 13, 2008 08:58PM
According to my doctor...(take this for what it's worth) MAP = systolic + 2(diastolic) / 3.  The AVERAGE MAP for homosapiens  is "60 or more with a "normal range" of 60-100"....a blood pressure of 125/86 (my bp  as of 5 minutes ago) gives me a MAP of 99 which I'm assuming is just barely acceptable and I won't have a stroke tonight...I guess.


This discussion is related to Blood Pressure - What is MAP ?.
