Blood Pressure MeasurementWhen a doctor takes your blood pressure, he or she measures both your systolic and diastolic pressure and records them as numbers. For example, if your blood pressure reading is 126/76 (126 over 76), your systolic is 126 and your diastolic is 76. The numbers are calculated in millimeters of mercury and recorded as 126/76 mmHg. These two numbers provide important information about your health. The more difficult it is for your blood to flow through your blood vessels, the higher both numbers will be. When blood pressure is consistently above normal it is called hypertension ( High Blood Pressure ).
CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN TO DETERMINE AND TREATMENT FOR BLOOD PRESSURE.
