Comparison of direct blood pressure measurements from the leg with oscillometric measurements of SAP, DAP, and MAP on the arm, leg, and tail

	Direct measurement (leg)	Oscillometric measurement	Difference relative to direct measurement
Arm
SAP	90.3 ± 1.4	84.4 ± 1.7^a,b	−6.0 ± 1.2
DAP	48.4 ± 0.9	42.8 ± 1.6 ^a,b,c	−5.6 ± 1.4
MAP	62.5 ± 1.0	57.7 ± 1.8 ^a,b,c	−4.8 ± 1.1
Leg
SAP	88.4 ± 1.6	76.8 ± 1.8 ^a,d	−11.6 ± 1.4
DAP	47.9 ± 1.1	31.7 ± 1.3^a,d	−16.2 ± 1.0
MAP	61.4 ± 1.2	48.1 ± 1.5 ^a,d	−13.3 ± 0.9
Tail
SAP	88.7 ± 1.7	84.9 ± 2.1^a	−3.8 ± 1.5
DAP	48.0 ± 1.1	37.7 ± 1.4^a	−10.2 ± 1.4
MAP	61.6 ± 1.3	52.4 ± 1.5^a	−9.2 ± 1.2

Data are given as mean ± SEM in mm Hg.

The difference between the direct blood pressure measurements and the indirect blood pressure measurements were determined at the arm, leg, and tail for oscillometric measurements. Significant (P < 0.05) differences between ^adirect measurement from the leg and corresponding indirect measurement or between indirect measurements on the ^barm and leg, ^carm and tail, or ^dleg and tail are indicated.
