What is 15-20 mm HG?
15-20 mm Hg refers to a pressure measurement unit known as millimeters of mercury. This range is commonly used to measure blood pressure, with 15-20 mm Hg usually being considered a low range for diastolic blood pressure. It can also be used in other applications to measure pressure, such as in monitoring the pressure within the eye.
Right when you smoke blood pressure goes up so how long does it take to get back to normal?
It takes about 20 minutes for pulse and blood pressure to resume to their prior baseline.
What is lupin 20 for?
If you are talking about a lisinopril tablet (medication) then it is used for high blood pressure.
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.
98 over 50 bp normal for a blood pressure?
This is a normal blood pressure if you are very athletic and/or are younger than 20. 98 is considered a normal systolic number, while a diastolic number of 50 is pretty low. This was my blood pressure yesterday and I did some research on it. http://www.vaughns-1-pagers.com/medicine/blood-pressure.htm has a really good chart about ranges of blood pressure

What is another name for balloon angioplasty?
Balloon angioplasty (stents) Angioplasty is the technique of mechanically widening a narrowed or obstructed blood vessel, typically as a result of atherosclerosis. An empty and collapsed balloon on a guide wire, known as a balloon catheter, is passed into the narrowed locations and then inflated to a fixed size using water pressures some 75 to 500 times normal blood pressure (6 to 20 atmospheres). The balloon crushes the fatty deposits, opening up the blood vessel for improved flow, and the balloon is then collapsed and withdrawn.
What is the blood pressure in capillaries?
The blood pressure in capillaries is typically in the range of 20-40 mmHg. The exact pressure varies depending on the location and orientation of the body, with higher pressures found in the lower limbs when standing upright due to gravity. [4] The blood pressure in capillaries is lower than in arteries and higher than in veins. This is because the capillaries are the site of exchange between the blood and the tissues, and the pressure needs to be low enough to allow for this exchange to occur. [3] Here are some key points to note about blood pressure in capillaries: The blood pressure in capillaries is typically in the range of 20-40 mmHg. The exact pressure varies depending on the location and orientation of the body. The blood pressure in capillaries is lower than in arteries and higher than in veins. The capillaries are the site of exchange between the blood and the tissues, and the pressure needs to be low enough to allow for this exchange to occur.
What number in blood pressure matters most?
The smaller one. Even small changes of +/- 20 in that are quite harmful
Why is proper blood pressure necessary for proper kidney function?
A little more than 20% of the total blood pumped by the heart enters the kidneys. One of the main functions of the kidneys is to remove waste products from the blood. Maintenance of high rate of blood flow and normal blood pressure in the kidneys is needed for the formation of urine.
What are two ways that a Cerebrovascular Accident can occur?
A stroke can occur in two ways. In an ischemic stroke, a blood clot blocks or plugs a blood vessel or artery in the brain. About 80 percent of all strokes are ischemic. In an hemorrhagic stroke, a blood vessel in the brain breaks and bleeds into the brain. About 20 percent of strokes are hemorrhagic.
