Explain in your own words this sentence “an MAP below 60 mm Hg produces syncope and an MAP above 160 mm Hg causes cerebral edema.”

I could. But I won't. That's not how things roll here.

 

The idea is that you should first let us get some insights in what you already know or think, in order to help you towards something we'll both understand. Not something you could just copy.

 

So.

 

What do you think? Why would it be?

Explain in your own words this sentence “an MAP below 60 mm Hg produces syncope and an MAP above 160 mm Hg causes cerebral edema.”

Think about these four questions:

 

What does MAP mean?

What does "mm Hg" refer to?

What's syncope?

What's a cerebral edema?

 

If you can answer those, you're well on your way to completing your task. :)
