Table 2: Inter-arm blood pressure difference by prevalence with systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and combined measure and mean of the measurements.

Systolic Inter-arm Blood Pressure Difference ≥ 10 mm Hg
1st measurement 2nd measurement Patients with IAD in 1st & 2nd measurements Averaged measurements
22/217 (10%) 18/217 (8.3%) 7/217 (3.2%) 26/217 (12%)
Diastolic Inter-arm Blood Pressure Difference ≥ 10 mm Hg
1st measurement 2nd measurement Patients with IAD in 1st & 2nd measurements Averaged measurements
9/217 (4.1%) 3/217 (1.4%) 1/217 (0.5%) 5/217 (2.3%)
Combined: Systolic and/or Diastolic Inter-arm Blood Pressure Difference ≥ 10 mm Hg
1st measurement 2nd measurement Patients with IAD in 1st & 2nd measurements Averaged measurements
29/217* (13.3%) 20/217** (9.2%) 8/217 (3.6%) 31/217 (14.2%)

*Two patients had a > 10 IAD with both systolic and diastolic pressures on the first measures; **One patient had a > 10 IAD with both systolic and diastolic pressures on the second measure.
