Blood Pressure

Introduction

The measurement of pressure exerted on the wall of the wall of arteries is known as the Blood Pressure. The hearth pumps the blood through the body. The Blood Pressure determined by the amount of the blood pumped and the force exerted by the wall of arteries, and freedom, and the size of the arteries. The continually changing Blood Pressure depends upon the diet, temperature, emotional state, medication use, physical state, and posture. Blood Pressure is typically observed even you are seated with your arm resting on a table. Your arm should be slightly bent so that it is at the same size as your heart. Your upper arm should be cleared, with your sleeve comfortably rolled up. There is no significant uncertainty associated with measuring Blood Pressure. If you find vascular access for kidney dialysis on your arm, you should not have your Blood Pressure checked in that arm.

Some people's Blood Pressure spikes at the doctor's office, for others it peaks at different times during the day or just stays high. To avoid drugs, you need to determine your doctor that you're out-of-office pressures, and are small enough for safely try other strategies first. "If your weekly average is less than 130/80, and your pressure has not led to other health problems, you may be able to delay drugs to see if lifestyle changes will work," says William B. White, M.D., president-elect of the Society of Hypertension.

Check your Blood Pressure twice a day for at least one week: the first thing in the morning, and then later at work or just after getting home. Take two readings, about two to five minutes apart, at each sitting. After a week, an average of all your readings should be close to the daytime standard that you would see on a 24-hour recording device (Vanspauwen et al, 2006. 796).

Current research about Blood pressure

The results of our study might be inaccurate because the case used Blood Pressure assessed by office readings rather than ambulatory, and Blood Pressure to titrate therapy. They point out that a large percentage of patients in the study had masked hypertension (i.e., controlled office Blood Pressure but higher ambulatory Blood Pressure). However, at this time, there is no trial evidence that reducing ambulatory Blood Pressure leads to improved outcomes or that the blood-pressure target should be an ambulatory blood-pressure monitoring variable. Hence, their concern remains largely speculative.

"It is recognized that women live longer than men, but that older women usually report lower quality of life than men. By lowering systolic pressure by 15 mm Hg in hypertensive women, there would be an increased benefit in quality of life by the prevention of cardiovascular disease in about 40 percent in women compared to 20 percent in men," Stassen said. He recommends that women and physicians become more aggressive in diagnosing and treating high systolic Blood Pressure (Akin et al, 2001. 445).
