The History of Blood Pressure Finding out someone’s blood pressure is very important. Johannes Müller once said‚ “The discovery of blood pressure was more important than the discovery of blood.” Someone’s blood pressure could be high‚ and no one would know. The reason being is that a person with high blood pressure‚ also known as hypertension‚ will usually have no symptoms. High or low blood pressure cannot be detected without being measured. High blood pressure could cause heart attacks‚ strokes

systolic blood pressure? Systolic blood pressure is the pressure exerted against artery walls created when the heart contracts to push oxygenated blood throughout the body. As blood pressure is represented by 2 numbers‚ systolic blood pressure is the upper number. A normal systolic blood pressure is 120 or below although it largely depends on the physical properties and capabilities of the individual. Q 2) what do you understand by the term diastolic blood pressure? Diastolic blood pressure indicates

Analysis of Orthostatic Vital Signs The purpose of this assignment was to measure‚ document and analyse six recordings of orthostatic blood pressure‚ orthostatic pulse and respiratory rate on my lab partner. Orthostatic Hypotension is a condition when there is a drop in systolic pressure of more than 20 mm Hg‚ or orthostatic pulse increases of 20 bpm or more which occurs due to a quick change to a standing position (Jarvis‚ pp. 163). Six recordings were taken over a certain period of time to better

this report you will learn of how my group and I performed our lab on blood pressure and what the results mean. We found the blood pressure before and after sixty seconds of jogging in place to see the effects. We found that after the physical activity the subject’s blood pressure was higher. From this we take away that physical activity does have a significant effect on the heart and blood pressure. Background: Blood pressure is the measured force applied to the artery walls as the heart pumps

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE The definition of High blood pressure is a measurement of the force applied against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps blood through the body. The pressure is determined by the force and amount of blood pumped and the size and flexibility of the arteries. The blood pressure is continually changing depending on activity‚ temperature‚ diet‚ emotional state‚ posture‚ physical state‚ and drugs. The blood pressure is ussually taken while the person

High or Low Blood Pressure? Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to compare blood pressure as related to gender and athletic status. Hypothesis: I predict that males have a higher blood pressure than women and athletes have a higher blood pressure than non athletes Background Info: Blood pressure is the amount of force that blood pushes against the inside walls of blood vessels as it passes through. This pressure

some struggle to understand. Blood is also a stimulating part of the human body that is really great to learn about‚ as well as blood pressure. Heart disease is a very common disease that many people face‚ so it is important that people are educated about it. There are two sides to the heart and each side receives and pumps different kinds of blood. The left side of the heart is more muscular because it has to pump blood from the lungs to pump all over the body. This blood is very oxygenated because

Blood pressure is the measure of the pressure against the walls of the arteries. There are two forces that form blood pressure. One of the forces is created when the heart pumps blood into the arteries through the circulatory system. The other force is due to the arteries as they resist the flow of blood. Blood pressure is always stated in two numbers‚ systolic pressure and diastolic pressure. The higher number is systolic pressure which represents the pressure while heart contracts to pump the blood
