Some useful information about blood pressure
What is Blood Pressure ?
Blood pressure is a measure of the force of blood flowing against the walls of the arteries. Arterial blood pressure is constantly changing during the course of the heart’s cycle. The highest pressure in the cycle is called the SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE; the lowest is the DIASTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE. Both pressure readings, the SYSTOLIC and DIASTOLIC, are necessary to enable a doctor to evaluate the status of a patient’s blood pressure.
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety, or the time of day, can influence
your blood pressure. Blood pressure is typically low in the morning and increases from afternoon to evening. It is lower in the summer and higher in the winter.
Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg) and measurements are written with the systolic pressure before the diastolic e.g. A blood pressure written as 140/90, is referred to as 140 over 90 mmHg.
