SacroLoc Back Support, Titanium, Size 2 (31.5 - 37.5)

Features of the SacroLoc Back Support: There are many different causes of back pain. Pain in the lower back, where the vertebral column and the pelvis meet, is particularly common. This place is known as the ileosacral joint. About one quarter of back aches have their origin below the lumbar column, the lower part of the back at the ileosacral joint. Often the pain occurs suddenly while standing or sitting for a long time or when getting up. The pain can also spread from the back area: * to the rear of the thigh; * to the hip; * to the groin and buttocks If this type of back pain becomes acute, it may hinder mobility.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE AND BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORING

Type of blood pressure and normal values.

There are several inds of blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure is the pressure in the arteries when the heart is fully contracted. The diastolic blood pressure is the pressure when the heart is fully relaxed between the beats.

There is also venous blood pressure. This is more or less constant during all faces of the heart beats.

The average pressure throughout the cardiac cycle is reported as mean arterial pressure. The pulse pressure reflects the difference between the systolic and diastolic pressures measured.

Normal ranges for blood pressure in adult humans are:

Systolic: less than 120 mmHg (2.32 psi or 15 kPa)
Diastolic: less than 80 mmHg (1.55 psi or 10 kPa)

 

The traditional ausculatory way of measuring the blood pressure.

Ausculatory means that one uses one's ear as a means by the measuring process. By this method one uses an inflatable cuff.  The cuff is connected to a pump, usually a rubber hand pump. It is also connected to a pressure measurig device - a manometer. The manometer can be based on mercury column hight (mercury manometer), a spring technology (aneroid manometer) or on digital sensors. The mercury manometer is regarded as the basic standard methods, since it is accurate without any calibration.

One ties the inflatable cuff around the over-arm, the wrist or some other places where arteries are easily accessed, and holds that place in the same hight as the heart. During measurement one listens to the artery by a stetoscope at a place more distant to the heart than the cuff, but fairly near the cuff, for example at the inner side of the elbow.

The cuff is inflated until the blood stops to flow through the artery, and somewhat more. When one does not hear anything in the steoscope, the pressure in the cuff has exceeded the systolic blood pressure and the blood flow has topped. Then one releases the air slowly until one hears a whooshing or pounding sound. Now the pressure in the cuff is exactly like the systolic blood pressure, and this pressure is noted from the manometer.

Then one releases the air slowly further until the whooshing sound stops and there is not any more sounds. Now the pressure in the cuff is equal to the diastolic blood pressure, and this is noted.

 

Oscilometric blood presure monitoring

Oscillometric methods are sometimes used in the long-term measurement and sometimes in general practice. The equipment is functionally similar to that of the auscultatory method, but with an electronic pressure sensor (transducer) fitted in to detect blood flow, instead of using the stethoscope and the expert's ear. In practice, the pressure sensor is a calibrated electronic device with a numerical readout of blood pressure. To maintain accuracy, calibration must be checked periodically, unlike the inherently accurate mercury manometer. In most cases the cuff is inflated and released by an electrically operated pump and valve, which may be fitted on the wrist (elevated to heart height), although the upper arm is preferred. They vary widely in accuracy, and should be checked at specified intervals and if necessary recalibrated.

Oscillometric measurement requires less skill than the auscultatory technique, and may be suitable for use by untrained staff and for automated patient home monitoring.

The cuff is inflated to a pressure initially in excess of the systolic blood pressure, and then reduces to below diastolic pressure over a period of about 30 seconds. When blood flow is nil (cuff pressure exceeding systolic pressure) or unimpeded (cuff pressure below diastolic pressure), cuff pressure will be essentially constant. It is essential that the cuff size is correct. Undersized cuffs may yield too high a meaure, whereas oversized cuffs yields too low a value. When blood flow is present, but restricted, the cuff pressure, which is monitored by the pressure sensor, will vary periodically in synchrony with the cyclic expansion and contraction of the brachial artery, i.e., it will oscillate. The values of systolic and diastolic pressure are computed, not actually measured from the raw data.

Oscillometric monitors may produce inaccurate values in patients with heart and circulation disturbances, for example arterial sclerosis, arrhythmia, preeclampsia, pulsus alternans, and pulsus paradoxus.

 

Invasive measurement

Measuring blood pressure with a sond placed inside an artery gives the best result. Blood pressure measurement with intravascular cannulas involves direct measurement of arterial pressure though a cannula needle in an artery (usually radial, femoral, dorsalis pedis or brachial). This is usually done by an anesthesiologist or surgeon in a hospital.

The cannula must be connected to a sterile, fluid-filled system, which is connected to an electronic pressure transducer. The advantage of this system is that pressure is constantly monitored beat-by-beat, and a waveform (a graph of pressure against time) can be displayed. This invasive technique is regularly employed in human and veterinary intensive care medicine, anesthesiology, and for research purposes.

Cannulation for invasive blood pressure monitoring is infrequently associated with complications such as thrombosis, infection, and bleeding. Patients with invasive arterial monitoring require very close supervision, as there is a danger of severe bleeding if the line becomes disconnected. It is generally reserved for patients where rapid variations in blood pressure are anticipated.

Invasive Blood Pressure monitors are pressure monitoring systems designed to acquire pressure information for display and processing. There are a variety of invasive blood pressure monitors for trauma, critical care, and operating room applications. These include single pressure, dual pressure, and multi-parameter (i.e. pressure / temperature). The monitors can be used for measurement and follow-up of arterial, central venous, pulmonary arterial, left atrial, right atrial, femoral arterial, umbilical venous, umbilical arterial, and intracranial pressures.

Blood pressure parameters are derived in the monitor's microcomputer system. Usually, systolic, diastolic and mean pressures are displayed simultaneously for pulsatile waveforms (i.e. arterial and pulmonary arterial). Some monitors also calculate and display CPP (cerebral perfusion pressure). Normally, a zero key on the front of the monitor makes pressure zeroing extremely fast and easy. Alarm limits may be set to assist the medical professional responsible for observing the patient. High and low alarms may be set on displayed temperature parameters.

 

Differences in the results form the methods

In practice the different methods do not give identical results. An algorithm and experimentally obtained coefficients are used to adjust the oscillometric results to give readings which match the auscultatory as well as possible.  Some equipment uses computer-aided analysis of the instantaneous blood pressure waveform to determine the systolic, mean, and diastolic points. Since many oscillometric devices have not been validated, caution must be given as most are not suitable in clinical and acute care settings.
