Reduced blood flow ... but its usually an artifact of measurement rather than real.

What does it mean when systolic and diastolic pressures are close together?
Your heart is about to explode and you die
What does systolic stands for?
Systolic comes from the Greek word, "systole", which means to draw together or contract. Systolic pressure is the maximum pressure produced in the arteries when the left ventricle of the heart contracts.
What are Isobars and what does it mean when they are close together?
It means that there is a steep gradient, or pressure change, and strong winds.
What kind of weather do ice-o bars bring?
Isobars on a weather map indicate areas of constant pressure. They circle areas of high or low pressure. Isobars themselves do not indicate weather, but are a tool for understanding large scale weather processes as related to pressure systems. However, if the isobars are close together, wind is expected.
What is the technical name for a blood pressure cuff?
As noted, it is extremely important to make sure your health provider uses the correct size of blood pressure cuff for you. Using a regular cuff on a fat person has been found to artificially inflate blood pressure significantly. If they do not use the correct-sized cuff on you, they will be basing your medical diagnosis and treatment plan on INVALID DATA. It is essential that this number be accurate. It is particularly critical to have an accurate reading of blood pressure in pregnancy due to concerns about Pre-Eclampsia/Pregnancy-Induced Hypertension (PE/PIH). Outside of pregnancy, a borderline BP number is not pursued as vigorously, but in pregnancy most OBs get very nervous about borderline blood pressures, and will start very aggressive interventions very quickly. Because some cases of PIH progress rapidly to PE and can endanger the baby and the mother, OBs tend to be extremely interventive about borderline blood pressures in pregnancy. Therefore it is extremely important to have accurate data on which to base these critical decisions.
