When the systolic blood pressure is below 90 mm Hg and the diastolic pressure is below 60 mm Hg, the person is hypOtensive, meaning low BP. The cause would need to be determined before you could say whether this is an acute condition or chronic.

What is the average range for systolic blood pressure?

120 (sys) 80 (diastolic) is the classic answer for highest normal blood pressure in adults. For adults, healthy blood pressure targets depend on health history, with lower targets for adults with certain conditions. Children's blood pressure norms are based on age and height percentile.


What is a normal Diastolic blood pressure range in an adult?

60-100mmHg for a healthy adult.


What is a normal icp reading for the brain?

A normal intracranial pressure (ICP) reading for the brain is typically between 5-15 mmHg. Values above 20 mmHg are considered elevated and may indicate increased pressure within the skull which can lead to serious complications.


In high blood pressure Pt is tooth extraction is advisible?

No, because of the risk of bleeding post operatively. It is recommended that the diastolic is below 100mmhg before extraction.


What is the partial pressure of CO2 in the arterial and venous blood?

The normal partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood is 75-100 millimeters of mercury. In comparison the partial pressure of oxygen at sea level is 750 millimeters of mercury.


Partial pressure of oxygen in interstitial space of peripheral tissues?

The partial pressure of oxygen in the interstitial space of peripheral tissues is typically around 40 mmHg. This level is lower than the partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood, which is around 100 mmHg. Oxygen diffuses from blood capillaries into the interstitial space to reach cells for metabolism.

Is it common for a vein to blow out while having a cat scan with dye through iv and or why would a vein blow out after the iv was already in and blew out during scan after dye was put through?

It is uncommon, however, it is not unusual. Veins are more fragile than arteries because they have to allow the blood to travel through them at much lower pressures than in arteries. Veins are normally exposed to pressures ranging from about 10-15mmHg in the thorax to about 90mmHg in the lower limbs, compared to pressures above 100mmHg. In a Cat scan, depending on the study required, iv dye is pushed through either as a bolus at low pressure (for a contrast study) at a venous phase or at a higher pressure (for an angiogram study) which is used to look at arterial phase. If the pressure used to push the dye through exceeds the capacity of the vein then the vein will blow out. It is difficult to predict whether this will happen although it usually does not happen.


How do you find the dissolved O2 content give plasma PO2 and Hb content?

PO2 can be estimate of dissolve O2,PO2 keep the oxygen on hemoglobin so if there is increase affinity of oxygen then required PO2 willbe low.each HB carry 20vol% O2 per 100ml of blood in a 100% saturation.if the dissolve oxygen become less then PO2 also become less in order to deliver more dissolve form to tissues.actua;;u ddissolve O2 at 100mmhg of PO2 is 0.3vol%/100ml of blood
