Calibração de Esfigmomanômetros: um levantamento a respeito do conhecimento de estudantes de medicina

Abstract: A hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS) é uma condição clínica multifatorial caracterizada por elevação sustentada da pressão arterial (PA). A aferição correta da medida da PA é assegurada pelas condições adequadas de funcionamento do esfigmomanômetro e pelo emprego da técnica correta. O presente teve como objetivo avaliar as condições de uso dos aparelhos de medida da PA e evidenciar o nível de conhecimento técnico a respeito do assunto no meio acadêmico de uma universidade privada do estado do Rio de Janeiro.… Show more

“…It was found that 90% of the students (389) had never calibrated their devices. 11 Additionally, the study demonstrated that 61.1% (264) of the students claimed never to have been instructed on the periodicity of verification, with 47.9% of them stating they were unaware of the risks to which they were exposing their patients.Furthermore, a computer simulation conducted by Tuner et al demonstrated that, after three tests, an uncalibrated device caused 20% systolic and 28% diastolic hypertension in undetected adults. It also falsely identified 15% systolic and 31% diastolic hypertension.…”
