BackgroundMean aortic pressure (MAP) plays a pivotal role in both cardiovascular dynamics and the noninvasive estimation of systolic aortic pressure. MAP can be estimated by adding a fraction of the pulse pressure (PP) to the diastolic aortic pressure, known as the form factor (FF=100[MAPdiastolic aortic pressure]/PP).
