Blood Pressure

High pressure combustion typically produces greater energy output per unit volume compared to low pressure combustion. This can result in higher temperatures, enhanced combustion efficiency, and increased power generation. However, it can also lead to greater stress on equipment and higher emissions of pollutants.

High blood pressure or hypertension is a condition wherein the pressure in the arteries is higher than the normal rate. High blood pressure, if not prevented may lead you in the risk of having heart disease.

The main factors that contribute to blood osmolarity are the concentration of solutes like sodium, potassium, chloride, and glucose in the blood. Hormones like antidiuretic hormone (ADH) and aldosterone also play a role in regulating blood osmolarity by controlling water reabsorption in the kidneys. Imbalances in these factors can lead to changes in blood osmolarity levels.

Predation pressure refers to the intensity of predation on a particular species or population within an ecosystem. It can influence the size of a population, its distribution, and behavior. High predation pressure can lead to adaptations that increase an organism's chances of survival.

As blood volume is lost the body tends to compensate by narrowing the blood vessels causing an increase in blood pressure. This change is not noticeable via a BP cuff due to lack of blood volume to sustain adequate pressure. The heart also begins to beat faster. This is known as shock. Shock is looked at with 3 essential problems. Pipes (Blood vessels; Ruptured, torn, etc.), Pump (Heart; contusions, heart attacks, insufficient sinus rhythms, disrhythmias, etc) Or a volume problem in this case. (Loss of fluid) Extended shock leads to the failure of several bodily organs. After 2-3 hours of hypovolemic shock, no matter how much blood or drugs you put back into the body, death is certain. Hope this gave you a good idea of the mechanics of shock.

A common way to measure pressure is in "mm of Hg" or millimeters of mercury. The reason that this unit of pressure is based on a unit of length is because of how pressure was measured originally. A curved tube full of mercury metal was used by Robert Boyle in the 17th century to measure pressure. Briefly, it works like this. Imagine a tube of glass bent into a U-shape with mercury inside. If both ends of the tube are open to air, the level of the mercury in each side of the "U" will be equal. However, if additional pressure was applied to the air above one side, it would cause the mercury on that side to drop, and the mercury on the other side would rise. The "mm of Hg" refers to the difference in height between the two sides. The bigger the difference in pressure between the two sides, the bigger the height difference. Note, that the measurement is inherently a relative measurement (one side of the tube relative to the other). One atmosphere (atm) is equal to 760 mm Hg. This is because if you have a perfect vacuum on one side of the U-shaped tube and 1 atmosphere or air pressure on the other side, the difference in height will be 760 millimeters (independent of the diameter of the glass tubing). Also, 1 torr is equal to 1 mm of Hg. For more information see: http://www.chm.davidson.edu/ChemistryApplets/GasLaws/Pressure.html

A normal diastolic blood pressure is generally considered to be less than 80 mmHg. Diastolic blood pressure measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart is at rest between beats. High diastolic blood pressure can be a sign of underlying health issues, such as hypertension.

Normal blood pressure is given in two numbers. The systolic pressure, or number on the top, is the measurement of how hard the heart is beating at the hardest part of the pump. The diastolic, or bottom number, is the measurement of the pressure at the time when the heart is relaxed. The numbers typically recognized as "perfect" are 120/80. If the systolic pressure goes above 140 it is considered high blood pressure. The diastolic should not go above 100 for normal pressure.

Her blood pressure should be 150/90. Average for a middle aged person is 120/80.

The top number is systolic (pumping) and the bottom is diastolic (filling).

The values for older people have changed to the above 150/90, although there are some who don't like it.

A blood pressure reading of 120/70 is considered normal for an 83-year-old man. It indicates that his blood pressure is within a healthy range. It's important for him to continue monitoring his blood pressure regularly.

I found a good comparison site. You may also do further research on medical alert sites. Most offer comparisons with the top competitors based on price, range, years in business, and average response time for emergency personnel.

Research is important in finding the right medical alert system for you, always do your homework when looking into features, prices and other determining factors. The internet is a great tool and when used correctly can provide you with all the information you need to find the correct system for you and your loved one.

So go out and ride. Visit a good bike shop (not X-mart), make sure they understand your needs and get fitted for a bike. If you're heavy you don't want to be looking at the sleekest road models, but a hybrid would probably suit you fine.

Yes, a broken bone can potentially raise your blood pressure due to the pain and stress associated with the injury. Your body's response to the pain and inflammation from the broken bone can trigger an increase in blood pressure. It's important to seek medical attention for a broken bone to manage pain and monitor potential effects on blood pressure.

Once someone reaches adulthood, the average blood pressure of 90-120 systolic and 60-79 diastolic is usually pretty good for the rest of their life. However, everyone's requirements are different, and the blood pressure readings actually change throughout the day. Check with your doctor if you're worried about your blood pressure.

Normal blood pressure for a 27-year-old female is typically around 120/80 mmHg. However, individual variations can occur, so it's always best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Gelfusine is an artificial colloid. Produced by hydrolysis of bovine collagen, the average molecular weight is 30-35kD. 50% of the dose is excreted in 2.5-4hours. Because of this very short half life, Gelfusine is used primarily to treat anaesthesia induced hypotension.

The medical term for a blood pressure cuff is a sphygmomanometer.

A giraffe's normal blood pressure is 240/160.

90 g per day is tolerable. Drink 6 glasses of water a day and substitute common salt for dietetic light salt. Alternate red meat by fish and chicken.

Good question:

Drinking cider (pH=4) on an empty stomach (pH = 2-3) increases the pH indeed.

But consider the following, compare a meal with water to a meal with cider.

In that situation the cider will decrease the pH.

I believe so. It also can gradually degrade your lungs. If a smoker gets a cat scan, you can see a black thick substance gathering up in the lungs. This can gradually shorten your life span, and you are more prone to sickness and other diseases.

No, because cozaar is an angiotensin receptor blocker which lowers the blood pressure & grape fruit will block some enzymes in the interstine so that the medication directly can enter in to the body very fast &in the kidneys there will be loss of water &salts . it causes so many side effects .

No. Drinking too much alcohol can raise blood pressure to unhealthy levels. Having more than three drinks in one sitting temporarily increases your blood pressure, but repeated binge drinking can lead to long-term increases. Keep in mind that alcohol contains calories and may contribute to unwanted weight gain - a risk factor for high blood pressure. Also, alcohol can interfere with the effectiveness and increase the side effects of some blood pressure medications. ~Mayo Clinic
