systolic blood pressure measured in the auscultatory method is more accurate than that measured in the palpitation method because the palpitation method is prone to more human errors such as how strong the pulse is‚ where it is located‚ how hard the wrist is pressed during palpitation and a stethoscope which is used in the auscultatory method is more sensitive than feeling a pulse.

to measure arterial blood pressure. Questions: 1. My blood pressure for this lab was 123/78. These numbers are normal‚ compared to the normal rating of 120/80. My pulse pressure was 45 (SP – DP). My mean arterial pressure was 93 (DP + 1/3 (SP – DP). 2. Mean arterial blood pressure is determined by cardiac output and total vascular resistance. The mathematical equation for mean arterial blood pressure is equal to cardiac output x total vascular resistance. The amount of blood pumped out of the heart
