Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) Calculator

Disclaimer:  Diagnosis is usually made clinically. If the score from the calculator indicates that you might be at risk please consider visiting a doctor for further evaluation. After you calculate the MAP we have a section below that is “Classification after calculating MAP” and is about the clinical classification of the condition you might be

Note: Please input the values to be greater than 0. You can only input 2 values the DP that is necessary and SP or PP.







The cardiovascular system delivers blood to every part of the body. It is capable of regulating the amount and speed of blood delivered through the veins by reacting to different inputs. The cardiovascular system’s primary function is to guarantee adequate blood flow throughout the body. Blood can be oxygenated through the lungs, and systemic circulation makes sure oxygenated blood and nutrients go to the rest of the body.

The average arterial pressure during one cardiac cycle, including systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, is known as mean arterial pressure (MAP). Cardiac output and systemic vascular resistance both affect MAP, and each is impacted by several different factors. The reason why we described the cardiovascular system is that we are going to provide you the Mena Arterial Pressure (MAP) calculator that is related to the part of the cardiovascular system that is the blood pressure. Blood pressure is the pressure of your blood against the artery walls.

The following formulas are commonly used to estimate the MAP where  DP is the diastolic blood pressure, SP is the systolic blood pressure, and PP is the pulse pressure. A sphygmomanometer also referred to as a blood pressure cuff or monitor, is typically used to measure both diastolic and systolic blood pressure.

Formulas for mean arterial pressure:

  •     MAP = DP + 1/3(SP – DP)  
  •     MAP = DP + 1/3(PP)  

Classification after calculating MAP:

Normal : < 90 mmHg

Increasing blood pressure: 90 to < 92 mmHg

Stage 1 hypertension: 92 to < 96 mmHg

Stage 2 hypertension : > 96 mmHg
