| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| pressure exerted by the blood against the artial walls during ventricular systole | systolic pressure |
| due to brief backflow of blood through the elastic arteries which closes the semilunar valves during ventricular diastole | Dicrotic Notch |
| pressure exerted by the blood against the arterial walls during ventricular diastole | Diastolic pressure |
| the difference between the systolic pressure and the diastolic pressue (SP-DP) | pulse pressure |
| __ is the throb felt when taking a pulse | pulse pressure |
| a calculated average pressure within the arteries during the cardiac cycle | mean arterial pressure(MAP) |
| diastolic pressure+ 1/3 (pulse pressure)= | MAP |
| normal =120 mmHg | systolic pressure |
| normal= 80mmHg | diastolic pressure |
| normal= 40mmHg | pulse pressure |
| the study of blood volume change withing an organ/tissue by using volume displacement techniques | Plethysmography |
