Understanding This Calculator

MAP Formula

Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) describes the average blood pressure in an individual during a single cardiac cycle.

MAP = (SBP + 2 × DBP) / 3

  • SBP: Systolic Blood Pressure (Top number)
  • DBP: Diastolic Blood Pressure (Bottom number)

Example 1 (Normal)

BP 120/80 mmHg.

  • Calculation: (120 + 2×80) / 3
  • (120 + 160) / 3 = 280 / 3 = 93.3 mmHg

Example 2 (Hypotension)

BP 90/50 mmHg.

  • Calculation: (90 + 2×50) / 3
  • (90 + 100) / 3 = 190 / 3 = 63.3 mmHg
