Systolic Pressure

Systolic pressure is the highest pressure in the arteries during ventricular contraction, when the heart ejects blood into the circulatory system. It reflects the interaction between cardiac output, arterial stiffness, and vascular resistance, and is commonly measured with a cuff or pressure sensor as part of blood pressure assessment. In bioengineering, systolic pressure guides the design and calibration of wearable monitors, catheter-based sensors, and cardiovascular models. Accurate measurement supports detection of abnormal hemodynamics, evaluation of vascular function, and development of personalized devices and treatments for conditions associated with elevated or reduced arterial pressure.

2020

We describe the creation of a rat model of pressure overload induced moderate remodeling and early systolic dysfunction where signal transduction pathways involved in the initiation of the remodeling process are activated. This animal model will aid in identifying molecular targets for applying early therapeutic anti-remodeling strategies for heart failure.

Source: Hamna J. Qureshi and Craig J. Goergen, Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana Here we will highlight the key similarities and differences of noninvasive blood pressure measurement techniques between humans and rodents and examine the engineering principles that govern blood pressure. The principles that govern current cuff technology to acquire systolic and diastolic pressures will also be discussed. Commercially available cuffs that connect...
