3 Blood pressure
3.1 What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the artery tube while blood flows through the
arteries. The pressure measured when the heart contracts and sends blood out of the
heart is systolic (highest). The pressure measured when the heart dilates with blood
flowing back into the heart is called diastolic (lowest) blood pressure.
3.2 Why measure your blood pressure?
Among the various health problems afflicting modern people, problems associated with
high blood pressure are by far the most common. High blood pressure's dangerously
strong correlation with cardiovascular diseases and high morbidity has made measuring
blood pressures a necessity of identifying those at risk.
3.3 Blood pressure standard
The World Health Organization (WHO) and
National High Blood Pressure Education
Program has developed a Blood pressure
standard, according to which areas of low
and high-risk blood pressure are identified.
This standard however, is a general
guideline as individual's blood pressure
varies among different people and different
groups...etc.
The WHO classification indicator on your
BPM Arm 5500 XLD will indicate the blood
pressure class together with the result.
It is important that you consult your physician regularly. Your physician will tell you your
normal blood pressure range as well as the point at which you will be considered at risk.
