All these variables came to mind. According to AAP for Manual Therapists‚ Hypertension or High Blood Pressure is a stylistic pressure of

Introduction: Heart rate and blood pressure are key factors in determining overall physical health. Together they establish how well the cardiovascular and circulatory systems are functioning‚ which is important in engaging in appropriate exercise safely. It is important to know and understand the resting vitals of an individual to establish a baseline of what is within normal ranges for that individual. We take resting vitals to ensure that physical activity does not cause any undue stress that

Blood is moved from the heart to the body by arteries. Blood pressure is the force of the blood pushing against the walls of the arteries. With each heartbeat‚ blood is pumped into the arteries. Systolic pressure is determined when the heart is contracting which causes increased pressure in the arteries. Diastolic Blood pressure is the remaining pressure in the arteries when the ventricles of the heart is relaxed allowing the heart to fill with blood. Blood pressure is influenced by cardiac output

which blood vessel diameter can be modified? Detection of changes in blood pressure (leading to resultant changes in blood vessel diameter): Baroreceptors at the carotid sinus (the bifurcation of internal and external carotid arteries in the neck) and the aortic arch detect changes in blood pressure. These non-encapsulated nerve endings‚ located in the adventitial layer of arteries‚ are technically mechanoreceptors; they respond to arterial distension occurring due to a change in blood pressure
