the systolic blood pressure is the pressure that the contraction of the ventricles have on the arteries, and a low systolic means a low pressure exerted by the ventricles of the heart. A low systolic would be below 90-100 on average but everyone is different. there are many different causes including orthostatic hypotension, which is a low blood pressure when rising from laying or sitting to standing (a common side effect of blood pressure medication and many other medications), heart attack, dehydration, and shock among many other conditions.
