Question

Results. Include at least one graph and a summary table or graph. You may need more than one. Any table or graph should have a descriptive title. Make sure you submit a summary table, not a restatement of raw data. I smile when I see calculated measures of central tendency (mean and median) and some measure of spread. Excel can do most of those calculations for you. Your graph should show blood pressure class averages for each body position. You should include a short narrative highlighting your data in this section.

Figure 1 (Example) : Graph representing systolic blood pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood pressure (DBP)

• Mean average ranges in different posture.

Changing position affect blood pressure :

• It is widely accepted that diastolic pressures while sitting are higher than when a patient is supine by as much as 5 mmHg. When the arm is at the level of the heart, systolic pressure can be 8 mmHg higher, such as when a patient is in the supine position rather than sitting.
