USEFUL REFERENCE ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE What is blood pressure? Blood pressure is the force generated by the blood against the walls of arteries during cardiac contraction and relaxation (e.g., the pumping action of the heart). Reference material: 1999 World Health Organization - International Society of Hypertension Guidelines for the management of hypertension, Journal of Hypertension, 1999, 17(2): 151-183. This is used as the basis for the coloured What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure? hypertension indication bar to the right of the screen. When ventricles contract and pump blood out of the heart, blood pressure reaches its maximum value. This highest pressure in the cycle is known as systolic pressure. When the heart relaxes between heartbeats, the lowest blood pressure is diastolic pressure. Blood pressure is considered high when either the diastolic or systolic blood pressure value exceeds the normal range. When a patient’s systolic and diastolic blood Then it starts inflating the arm cuff to 180mmHg pressures fall into different categories, the or higher until it senses that it has blocked your higher category should apply. blood in the artery. Only a physician can tell you your normal After that, the deflation process starts, during blood pressure range and the point at which which time the unit detects pressure oscillations you are at risk.

After all readings are determined and displayed Individual blood pressure varies greatly both on a on the LCD, the measurement is finished and the daily and a seasonal or temperature basis.
