This is the resting pressure of the circulatory system. This is the pressure available in the circulatory system when the heart is at rest.

There is either too little fluid in the vascular system or too few particles. You must have pressure even during the resting period for proper cell perfusion. This can also indicate a serious problem with the heart valves which help keep the resting system pressurized.
