2. Important Information on Blood Pressure and its Measurement
2.1. How does high or low blood pressure arise?
Your level of blood pressure is determined in the circulatory center of the brain and adjusts to a
variety of situations through feedback from the nervous system. To adjust blood pressure, the
strength and speed of the heart (Pulse), as well as the width of circulatory blood vessels is
altered.Blood vessel width is controlled by fine muscles in the blood vessel walls.
Your level of arterial blood pressure changes periodically during heart activity: During the
“blood ejection” (Systole) the value is highest (systolic blood pressure value). At the end of the
heart’s “rest period” (Diastole) pressure is lowest (diastolic blood pressure value).
Blood pressure values must lie within certain normal ranges in order to prevent particular
diseases.
2.2. Which values are normal?
