A blood pressure of 90/22 means that the machine might have some problems or the person is feeling really tired, weak, dizzy and fainting, or the person might be in a coma or death. 90/22 is serious hypotension (low blood pressure). "90" is the systolic BP and "22" is the diastolic BP.
The systolic BP is the pressure in the arteries right when the blood is pumped out of the heart, therefore the pressure is bigger. The diastolic BP is the pressure in the arteries after the blood has been pumped out and before the next heart contraction. At this moment, the heart is relaxed and the pressure is much lower.
The optimal BP is 120/80. The low normal is 90/60 and the high normal is 140/90.
