What is the mean arterial pressure? The mean arterial pressure (MAP) is defined as an approximation of a time-weighted average of blood pressure values in large system arteries during the cardiac cycle. It is directly related to the cardiac output. To calculate the MAP, you need two values - you systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
