What Is Mean Arterial Pressure?
Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) represents the average blood pressure during one cardiac cycle. It indicates whether blood flow is adequate to perfuse organs.
Formula
MAP = Diastolic + (Systolic − Diastolic) / 3Example
With BP 120/80 mmHg: MAP = 80 + (120 − 80)/3 = 93.3 mmHg, which is normal.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a normal MAP?
A normal MAP is between 70 and 100 mmHg. Below 60 mmHg may not adequately perfuse vital organs.
Why is MAP important?
MAP determines blood flow to organs. It's more clinically relevant than individual systolic/diastolic readings.
