We propose a method of measurement pulse pressure based on ultrasound findings. We propose a theory using clas-sical concepts of hydrodynamics, a formula for calculating the pulse pressure which includes the value that can be obtained by ultrasound: vessel diameter in systole and diastole, the flow rate. Verification of the proposed method based on measurement of the pulse pressure by cuff and ultrasonic method.
