                   Systolic-vs-diastolic-blood-pressure



Systolic vs. diastolic blood pressure are the two components used to measure blood pressure. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps it throughout the circulatory system. The measurement of blood pressure is typically written as systolic over diastolic, like 120/80 mm Hg, with the systolic value written first and the diastolic value second.

Here's an explanation of systolic and diastolic blood pressure:
Systolic Blood Pressure: This is the higher number in a blood pressure reading. It represents the pressure in the arteries when the heart contracts or beats to push blood into the circulation. Systolic blood pressure is measured when the heart is at its maximum force during a heartbeat.
Diastolic Blood Pressure: This is the lower number in a blood pressure reading. It represents the pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest or between beats. In other words, it is the minimum pressure in the arteries, and it occurs when the heart is in its resting phase.

The blood pressure reading as a whole (e.g., 120/80 mm Hg) provides valuable information about the force of blood flow within the circulatory system. An optimal blood pressure reading for most adults is typically considered to be around 120/80 mm Hg. However, it's important to note that ideal blood pressure values can vary depending on an individual's age, medical history, and other factors.
