Question
Chapter 20.5, Problem 22WDYL
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The higher blood pressure, lower blood pressure or a normal blood pressure in an individual with sustained increased resistance.
Concept introduction:
Resistance is a force which is applied opposite to the movement of blood. In order to carry out the normal blood flow, blood needs to overcome this resistance force.

However, some clinicians and researchers have suggested increasing the cut-point value for systolic blood pressure to 130 mmHg to identify hypertension (i.e., those with systolic blood pressure of 130 mmHg and above would be positive for hypertension). If the cut-point value for identifying a person as hypertensive was increased from 120 mmHg to 130 mmHg, which of the following may occur? A. The sensitivity of the new cut-point value would increase. B. The specificity of the new cut-point value would increase. C. Both the sensitivity and specificity of the new cut-point value would increase. D. There would be no change to the sensitivity or specificity of the new cut-point value.arrow_forward
