It depends on the age of the person. The average for a young health adult is 120/80. In this case 130 is slightly too high and 60 is too low. The difference between the two can be more important than the 130/60 taken together. In this case it is 70. Normally it would be 40. This is called widened pulse pressure.If you get this wide a pulse pressure over very many readings, then this can be a factor in cardiovascular risk. You should have the doctor take the BP over several times before you get upset. One reading is an isolated event and not written in stone.Ranges for blood pressure:
1. Infants 80/60
2. Toddlers 90/60
3. Preschoolers 90/60
4. School-age 100/80
5. Adolescence 120/80
6. Adults 120/80
The normal blood pressure for 58 year old men is 130 over 85. This is due to restrictions in the blood vessels and their elasticity over time.
It's currently my blood pressure so I bloody well hope so.
one hundred and forty over ninety
can people with severly high blood pressure ; like 190 over 130 get social security benefits
It is your systolic blood pressure over diastolic blood pressure.Systolic is the peak pressure in the arteries when they are contracting.Diastolic is the minimum pressure when the ventricles are filled with blood.
I' am a female 54 and 5-4 my blood pressure is 144/77 what should it be
What is the Normal blood pressure rate for 82 year old man? Answer: 170/110
The systolic pressure is always stated first and the diastolic pressure second. For example: 122/76 (122 over 76); systolic = 122, diastolic = 76. Blood pressure of less than 140 over 90 is considered a normal reading for adults. A systolic pressure of 130 to 139 or a diastolic pressure of 85 to 89 needs to be watched carefully. A blood pressure reading equal to or greater than 140 (systolic) over 90 (diastolic) is considered elevated (high).
A desirable target would be 130 over 75.
130/70
beforeexercising it should be (120 over 75 - 130 over 85) after exercising(125 over 85 - 135 over 90)
Diastolic refers to the moment when the heart muscle is relaxed between contractions. Diastolic blood pressure is the pressure at that moment - the lower of the two blood pressure numbers. (e.g. if the blood pressure is 120/80, the diastolic pressure is 80.) it is the bottom number of a blood pressure reading. it measures the force of blood in the chambers of the heart: the atria and ventricles.
