You have long diastolic time as compared to systolic time. So diastolic time is more compromised than systolic time.
Having a high systolic bp is more dangerous than high diastolic bp.
The systolic number is always higher than the diastolic number. 120 or lower for systolic number and 80 or lower for diastolic is in normal range. If diastolic is high, say 95 after running - is ita high? and if what should one do?
A high Diastolic is more dangerous than a proportionate rise in Systolic blood pressure.
yes
Systolic BP should always be higher than diastolic BP.The number on the top is the systolic blood pressure and the number on the bottom is the diastolic blood pressure. 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 systolic pressure is always stated first and the diastolic pressure second. For example: 122/76 (122 over 76); systolic = 122, diastolic = 76. Blood pressure of less than 140 over 90 is considered a normal reading for adults. A systolic pressure of 130 to 139 or a diastolic pressure of 85 to 89 needs to be watched carefully. A blood pressure reading equal to or greater than 140 (systolic) over 90 (diastolic) is considered elevated (high).
High Blood Pressure "Hyper" is High "Hypo" is Low Tension is Blood Pressure Hyper would be anything over 150 systolic and 90 diastolic Hypo would be anything lower than 100 systolic top number systolic, bottom diastolic
High Blood Pressure "Hyper" is High "Hypo" is Low Tension is Blood Pressure Hyper would be anything over 150 systolic and 90 diastolic Hypo would be anything lower than 100 systolic top number systolic, bottom diastolic
This is impossible. Systolic pressure is the pressure in the artery during the heart contractions. Diastolic pressure is during heart relaxation. Picture this, and you'd see that it's impossible to have diastolic pressure equal or greater than systolic pressure.
Yes, blood pressure is a measure of the pressure exerted on your arterial walls as the heart pumps blood throughout the body (systolic) over the pressure when your heart is relaxed (diastolic).
telmisartan lowered both systolic and diastolic BP to a greater extent than did valsartan
