What is the pulse rate for a person sitting?
Resting pulse rate (as it is called) is generally about 72 beats per minute. However, it will immediately go up if you make any movement. Athletes will sometimes have a resting rate even down to 50 bpm. Older people particularly in sedentary occupations may have a resting rate over 80 bpm.
What are the units used to measure heartrate?
A person's pulse (pulse rate or heart rate) is measured in beats per minute. Here is a general standard of pulse rate (PR). Resting Pulse Rate PR < 40 BMP - Below healthy resting heart rates. PR 40-60 BPM - Resting heart rate for sleeping. PR 60-100 BPM - Healthy adult resting heartrate. PR 100 BPM - 220 BPM - Acceptable if measured during exercise. Not acceptable if resting heartrate. PR > 220 BPM -Abnormally high heart rate.
Why is the measurement of pulse pressure so important?
Some evidence suggests that pulse pressure is a better predictor of clinical outcome than the systolic or diastolic blood pressure alone. However, using pulse pressure as a clinical predictor or diagnosis tool is complicated because the pulse pressure doesn't provide unique information. Pulse pressure must be calculated from the systolic and diastolic readings. So, saying that someone has an "elevated pulse pressure" is usually the same as saying that they have an "elevated systolic blood pressure," which is already known to be an important clinical finding requiring treatment.
