pressure measurements?
Homework Answers
ANSWER.
Importance of taking reliable blood pressure measurement.
* Reliable blood pressure measurement confirm the current changes
in blood pressure level of the patient and helps to categorize the patient
into hypertensive,normal or hypotensive.
* Reliable blood pressure results are necessary to prevent common complications
of changes in blood pressure like cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems.
* Reliable blood pressure measurement is required before and after a surgical procedure
to avoid complications associated with surgery.
* It helps to assess the response of the patient to a medical or surgical treatment.
* It helps to assess homeostasis of the body.

In order to check if blood pressure measurements change if one is sitting or standing, a study was conducted where systolic blood pressure of 35 patients were recorded while in sitting position and then again while standing. The comparison of systolic blood pressure in the two positions is an example of testing the difference between: -Two means from independent populations -Two population proportions -Matched pairs from two dependent populations -All of the above options are equally viable testing methods

Listed below are systolic blood pressure measurements taken from the right and left arms of the same woman. Assume that the paired sample data is a simple random sample and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the difference between the measurements from the two arms. What can be concluded? Right arm measurements are 143, 133, 138, 130, 138 left arm measurements are 170, 167, 176, 139, 142. Identify the...

The blood pressure of a person changes throughout the day. Suppose the systolic blood pressure of a person is measured 16 times over several days and the standard deviation of these measurements for the person is known to be σ=7.9 mmHg. Let μ be the true average blood pressure for that person and let x¯=127 be the average of the 16 measurements. (a) Find a two-sided 94% confidence interval for μ. One can be 94% confident that the true average...

introduction Blood pressure measurements are always expressed by two numbers, the systolic pressure over the diastolic pressure. The blood pressure cuff is inflated until the air pressure within the cuff exceeds the blood pressure in the artery in the arm. This causes the artery to collapse, temporarily shutting down the flow of blood. Then, pressure in the cuff is slowly reduced until air pressure in the cuff becomes less than pressure in the artery, allowing blood to...

A sample of blood pressure measurements is taken for a group of adults, and those values (mm Hg) are listed below. The values are matched so that 10 subjects each have a systolic and diastolic measurement. Find the coefficient of variation for each of the two samples; then compare the variation. Systolic 120 127 160 94 155 121 115 134 124 118 Diastolic 81 76 74 51 90 86 56 63 74 80 The coefficient of variation for the systolic...
