Figure 5-2: ABP Report Summary
The
ABP Report Summary
displays a summary for the entire scan and for each of the statistical
periods. The information provided is for the patient’s systolic, diastolic, MAP, pulse pressure, and
heart rate. The low, high, and mean rates for the prescribed periods are also recorded.
This page also indicates the percentage of time that the readings in each of the periods were
higher than the statistical boundaries.
Dipping is an indication of the change in blood pressure between day (or wake) and night (or
sleep). It is the percentage change for the mean systolic and diastolic readings for the day and
night. If there is no day or no night period, the dipping values cannot be calculated and, therefore,
will not be available and will be indicated with a hyphen (-).
