Özet:

 The calf area is an alternative measurement site when blood pressure cannot be measured at the arm. To determine the effects of different body positions on calf blood pressure readings in healthy young students. A total of 100 healthy young students who agreed to participate in the study were randomly selected. The study was carried out in Aydın Adnan Menderes University Nursing Faculty. In all participants, blood pressure was measured in four positions: supine, prone, right lateral, and left lateral recumbent. All measurements were performed three times at 1-min intervals, and the results were compared. There was no statistically significant difference between the systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements in the supine and prone positions p0.05. The systolic blood pressure value was significantly lower in the left lateral recumbent position than in the other positions p0.05. The diastolic blood pressure was significantly higher in the right lateral recumbent position than in the other positions p0.05. When assessing calf blood pressure, it is important to consider the body position of the patient. It should be known that different results can be obtained in lateral recumbent positions.
