Compute Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP)

Description

Computes mean arterial pressure (MAP) based on diastolic and systolic blood pressure. Optionally heart rate can be used as well.

Usage

compute_map(diabp, sysbp, hr = NULL)


Arguments

 diabp Diastolic blood pressure A numeric vector is expected. sysbp Systolic blood pressure A numeric vector is expected. hr Heart rate A numeric vector or NULL is expected.

Details

\frac{2DIABP + SYSBP}{3}

if it is based on diastolic and systolic blood pressure and

DIABP + 0.01 e^{4.14 - \frac{40.74}{HR}} (SYSBP - DIABP)

if it is based on diastolic, systolic blood pressure, and heart rate.

Usually this computation function can not be used with ⁠%>%⁠.

Value

A numeric vector of MAP values
