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?
The systolic pressure is the upper number, while diastolic is the lower number.His diastolic pressure climbed to 120 in a blood pressure of 220/120.The woman's diastolic blood pressure fell with a large gap between the systolic and diastolic pressures.
Yes. The bottom number is the diastolic pressure.
Diastolic is associated with blood pressure. It's the measurement of pressure in the artery when your heart is at rest. Dystolic is a common misspelling.
130/70
9550 millibars would be a dangerous number for either systolic or diastolic. Borderline high blood pressure begins at around 4400 millibars for systolic (usually the first number) and around 3000 diastolic (typically second number. Usually the diastolic is the more critical number.
It is the diastolic pressure. It is the pressure on the walls of the arteries when the heart is resting.
They look at the diastolic (smaller number) when checking for high blood pressure.
systolic and diastolic
Blood pressure has both diastolic and systolic readings on a meter. The expected readings of a healthy individual are below 120 for systolic and under 80 for diastolic. Diastolic measures the resting moments between beats while the systolic measures the beat. On the meter, systolic is the upper number and diastolic is the lower one.
First number is systolic, the second number is diastolic.
"Normal" blood pressure is somewhere between 90/60 and 140/90. Systolic - the top number Diastolic - the bottom number Systolic pressure is when the heart is contracted and squeezing blood out of the heart. Diastolic pressure is when the heart is relaxed and letting blood flow into the heart.
