What else can I help you with?
Can you have high blood pressure at 10?
Is that 10 years of age? Yes!
Is a blood pressure of 166 over 115 too high?
Yes, this blood pressure reading is high. Have you been active? If so, rest for 10 minutes and take your blood pressure again. If your blood pressure is still this high, talk to your doctor. High blood pressure does a lot of damage on the body and can result in stroke, heart attack, and various other conditions.
My son who is 10 years old is having dizzy spells I checked his blood pressure and it was 118 systolic 57 distolic I checked his blood sugar and it was 85 are these ranges normal?
Is your son well developed? My Daughter is 10 and has dizzy spells, she has breasts and started her periods when she was 9. Her blood pressure is 127 (systolic pressure)
The health and safety of taking blood pressure of a pregnant woman?
It is safe, in fact, when you go to hospital and about to give birth, they will check your blood pressure regularly. In addional, if they give you any kind of medication nurse will check the blood pressure like every 10 mins.
After exercise how long before your blood pressure returns to normal?
After exercise, blood pressure returns to your normal resting rate after 10 minutes or more. A significant drop in blood pressure after stopping exercising may indicate that you have an underlying heart condition.
What does delta pressure method mean?
It's when you change the tire inflation pressure. Usually by 5 to 10 PSI.
What is the resulting blood pressure in your feet 130 cm below your heart?
When you suddenly stand up after lying down, your body requires some time to actively compensate for the resulting changes in blood pressure with height. Assuming that your body hasn't compensated yet and that the blood pressure at your heart is 13.3 kPa what is the resulting blood pressure. (blood ~ 1,050 kg/m3) 13.3 ×10^3 Pa + (1.06 ×10^3 kg/m3 ) × 9.81 m/s2× 1.3 m = 26.8 kPa
What is classed as high level of phenytoin in blood?
Any level more than 10 is taken as high
Normal blood pressure for a 3 year old?
The normal blood pressure for a boy who is 6 years old is a top number between 109 and 117 and a bottom number between 72 and 76. For a 6 year old girl the top number should be between 108 and 114 and a bottom number between 71 and 75.
Why does blood get filtered by the kidneys?
Blood pressure promotes filtration of blood in the kidneys by, generally, being greater in pressure than blood colloid osmotic pressure and glomerular capsule pressure which produces a net filtration pressure of about 10 mm Hg. Net filtration pressure forces a large volume of fluid into the capsular space. When blood pressure increase or decreases slightly, changes in the diameters of the afferent and efferent arterioles can actually keep net filtration pressure steady to maintain normal glomerular filtration. Constriction of the afferent arteriole decreases blood flow into the glomerulus, which decreases net filtration pressure. Constriction of the efferent arteriole slows outflow of blood and increases net filtration pressure.
Why is the sphygmomanometer kept at the level of your heart while measuring your blood pressure?
If it is below your heart then the reading could be falsely high; if it is too high, falsely low. This is due to the hydrostatic component of the blood pressure, which is due to gravity and varies only with the height of the point being measured (in a standing position lowest at the head, highest at the feet). When measuring blood pressure it is desirable to have the same hydrostatic component as at the heart. Therefore, by convention, the "right" blood pressure is the one taken at the heart level. Please note that a 10 cm difference in level between the point of measure and the heart would introduce an error of 7.6 mmHg.
What is the resulting blood pressure in your brain 50 cm above your heart?
When you suddenly stand up after lying down, your body requires some time to actively compensate for the resulting changes in blood pressure with height. Assuming that your body hasn't compensated yet and that the blood pressure at your heart is 13.3 kPa what is the resulting blood pressure. (blood ~ 1,050 kg/m3) = 13.3 ×103 Pa - (1.06 ×10^3 kg/m3 ) × 9.81 m/s2× 0.5 m = 8.1 ×10^3 Pa = 8.1 kPa
