Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility of the upper- arm electronic sphygmomanometer for evaluating the blood pressure in patients with atrial fibrillation. Methods Consecutive hospitalized patients with atrial fibrillation for coronary angiography were selected, and the application of upper- arm electronic sphygmomanometer and mercury sphygmomanometer of blood pressure were applied and in the process of coronary angiography, the radial artery invasive blood pressure was recorded and the correlation was analyzed. Results Mercury sphygmomanometer and radial artery invasive blood pressure measurement had a good consistency on systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, mean arterial pressure in atrial fibrillation patients, the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Upper- arm electronic sphygmomanometer and radial artery invasive blood pressure measurement had some consistency (pulse rate range, pulse rate of 70-90 beats / min) on systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, mean arterial pressure in atrial fibrillation patients, the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Upper-arm electronic sphygmomanometer and mercury sphygmomanometer had some consistency (pulse rate range, pulse rate of 70-90 beats / min) on systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, mean arterial pressure in atrial fibrillation patients, the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The correlation between mercury sphygmomanometer and radial artery invasive blood pressure measurement were found on systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, mean arterial pressure in atrial fibrillation patients (r=0.71-0.78, P<0.05),which were better than those of upper- arm electronic sphygmomanometer and radial artery invasive blood pressure measurement (r=0.53-0.70, P <0.05). Conclusions The upper- arm electronic sphygmomanometer can be used for the assessment of blood pressure in patients with atrial fibrillation.
