Different protocols are used in conjunction with blood pressure measurements. Therefore, the information models should cover all aspects that are needed to specify what to measure exactly.
Protocol | Description | aspects to consider |
---|---|---|
PO standard | normal observation by a physician in his office | normally performed in office, patient is sitting and in rest, professional device, measured at arm |
home measurement | self-observation of patient | performed at home, with untrusted device, typically measured at wrist |
AOBP | Automated Office Blood Pressure | measuring blood pressure in a clinical setting that uses an automated device to take multiple readings with the patient alone in a room, thereby eliminating the "white coat effect" and human error associated with manual measurements |
Bruce | Bruce treadmilll test | evaluation of cardiac function and physical fitness |
Naughton | treadmill protocol | increasing exertion |
NHANES | National Health and Nutrititon Examination Survey | |
orthostatic | supine -> sitting -> standing | varying body position to examine what happens if patient stands up |
24h average | sequence of observations during 24 hours | measured all 15 minutes for 24 hours, at arm, arbitrary exertion, activity unclear |
tilt | sequence of measurements with increasing tilt | tilt angle |
