[Pressure determination in tachycardia. Improved approximation using a stage-by-stage technic].
In heart arrhythmia, and especially tachyarrhythmia, blood pressure measurements are known to be approximate. The current recommendations proved to be unsatisfactory in a group of 23 patients in whom they were tested systematically. A simple atraumatic bedside method, developed from the standard method of measuring blood pressure by sphygmomanometer and called the "stage by stage" measurement method, is presented.
