To Compare the Difference on Determination of Blood Pressure between Supine and Lateral Position

Objective To compare the difference on determination of right hand of humerus blood pressure between supine and lateral position.Methods The right hand of humerus blood pressure were determined in supine and lateral position in two hundreds of volunteers respectively.Results The systolic blood pressure(mmHg) in supine position was about(119±3.2)and that in left and right recumbent position were about(108±2.5)and(118±3.1) respectively,the corresponding values of diastolic blood pressure(mmHg) were about(79±4.1),(61±3.1) and(78±2.4) respectively.The data of blood pressure determined in supine position were significantly greater than those in left recumbent position.Conclusion The data of blood pressure determined in supine position were significantly greater than those in left recumbent position in healthy volunteers.
