Detailed explanation-1: -Blood pressure is recorded as two numbers, the systolic pressure (the pressure when the heart beats) over the diastolic pressure (the pressure when the heart relaxes between beats). We record this with the systolic pressure first (on the top) and the diastolic pressure second (below).
Detailed explanation-2: -The gauge uses a unit of measurement called millimeters of mercury (mmHg) to measure the pressure in your blood vessels. If you have high blood pressure, talk to your health care team about steps to take to control your blood pressure to lower your risk for heart disease and stroke.
Detailed explanation-3: -ideal blood pressure is considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg. high blood pressure is considered to be 140/90mmHg or higher. low blood pressure is considered to be below 90/60mmHg.
