AP Sys BP Field: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:09, 27 April 2016

The AP Sys BP data input field records systolic blood pressure value.

The field is related to AP Dias BP Field; although they are separate fields they must come from same reading!

The details of collection for ICU and medicine are different. For the timeing and which value to use, see:

Apache Systolic BP is used for the MOST score.

This is one of the values used to calculate the Mean BP for APACHE II.

The AP Sys BP must be >=25 And <=360.

-==Critical Care==
-Refer to '''[[Mean BP]]''' for information on collection Systolic BP for critical care.
-== Blood Pressure when on IAPB (intra aortic balloon pump) ==
-We want the worst value in the 1st 24 hrs in ICU, so if possible get the '''pre IABP BP'''.
-If only post IABP BPs are available, use peripheral arterial BP, '''not''' aortic pressure.
