In most individuals, even a high resting pulse rate in unconditioned people will not exceed 75-80 beats per minutes. Excluding external drug effects, physicians would consider this borderline tachycardia and monitor via 12-lead EKG and/or echocardiogram to determine any cardiac abnormalities. At this rate, most individuals may also experience hypertension and a feeling of palpitations, dizziness or breathlessness. If the physicians find the tachycardia is "idiopathic" with no specific cause determined, they may prescribe a group of drugs known as beta-blockers to slow down the heart rate.

What kind of heart rate is accompanied with high blood pressure?

Technically speaking, a pulse rate 100 and above is "high." This is referred to as tachycardia. However, pulse rates are unique to individuals. If a person's resting heart rate is normally 60, and he or she all of the sudden has a resting heart rate of 90, this would probably be considered high, even though it does not technically fit the definition of tachycardia.

Is 137 87 blood pressure normal?

This BP is in normal range. 102 over 87 means Systolic BP is 102 and Diastolic BP is 87. The normal range is Systolic of 100-140 and Diastolic of 60-90.However, the interesting thing about this BP is that the Pulse pressure which is defined as the difference between systolic and diastolic BP, is narrow.Narrow Pulse may be seen in normal people but can also be seen in heart failure, arteriosclerosis, markedly decreased intravascular volume like dehydration and diabetic ketoacidosis.
