It has been found that a high first blood pressure (BP) measurement using the Korotkov method is determined by arterial smooth muscle function in accordance with the Frank-Starling mechanism. Therefore, unrepresentative first 2-3 blood pressure measurements are proposed to be excluded from a clinical analysis.
