title: [Evaluation of blood pressure changes].
abstract: Blood pressure measurements is one of the most frequently used and technically simple medical measurements, therefore, this study gives a brief survey of the evaluation of changes in blood pressure. After summarising the factors that determine the blood pressure, the meaning and the physiological mechanisms of blood pressure changes are defined. The causes and the consequences of hypotension and hypertension are summarised. The blood pressure is an excellent indicator for the general condition of circulation both in patients and in healthy people.
