What is blood pressure? |
| |
English | ||
The heart is a pump that circulates blood throughout your body. Blood is pumped | ||
from the heart at a constant pressure into arteries. This pressure is called the |
| |
arterial blood pressure and represents, in general terms, your blood pressure. Blood |
| |
pressure is indicated by several kinds of pressures, including the systolic pressure |
| |
that occurs when the heart pumps blood, and the diastolic pressure that occurs |
| |
when blood returns to the heart. |

Your blood pressure changes all the time. | Deutsch |
Your blood pressure differs according to your age, gender and a range of other | |
factors. It is likely to be affected by your biorhythm during the day and by your |
|
posture, physical activities, mental activities, level of stress and even by the air |
|
temperature. The blood pressure of a healthy person generally varies within a day. |
