it is systolic I remember it by Lub-Dub like clapping your hands.
systolic
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?
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.
You have long diastolic time as compared to systolic time. So diastolic time is more compromised than systolic time.
Rapid potassium infusion causes diastolic and not systolic cardiac arrest.
