|
Answer» Diastolic-80 mm of hgSystolic-120 mm of hg The pressure inside the artery during ventricular systole(contraction)is called systolic pressure and the pressure in the artery during ventricular diastole (relaxation)is called diastolic pressure.The normal range of systolic pressure is about 120mm of Hg and diastolic pressure is 80mm of Hg \tTypesSystolic blood pressureDiastolic blood pressureDefinitionThe amount of pressure exerts on the arteries and blood vessels.The pressure which is exerted on the walls of the arteries.Normal RangeIn infants -95mmHg. In adults- 90-120 mmHg. Age 6 – 9 –100 mmHg.In infants–65 mm Hg. In adults– 60-80 mmHg. Age 6 – 9 — 65 mmHg.Ventricles of the HeartLeft ventricles contractFill with bloodReading of Blood PressureThe higher number is systolic pressure.The lower number is the diastolic pressure.Blood pressure inside the arteriesMaximumMinimum.Blood vesselsContractsRelaxedAssociated with the ageIncreases with the individual’s ageDecreases with the individual’s age\t |
