What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?
When ventricles contract and pump blood out of the heart, blood pressure reaches its maximum
value, the highest pressure in the cycle is known as systolic pressure. When the heart relaxes
between heartbeats, the lowest blood pressure is diastolic pressure.
What is the standard blood pressure classification?
The chart on the right is the
standard blood pressure classifi-
cation published by American
Heart Association (AHA).
Please consult a physician if your measuring result falls outside the range.
Please note that only a physician can tell whether your blood pressure value
has reached a dangerous point.
