Detailed explanation-1: -systole, period of contraction of the ventricles of the heart that occurs between the first and second heart sounds of the cardiac cycle (the sequence of events in a single heart beat). Systole causes the ejection of blood into the aorta and pulmonary trunk.
Detailed explanation-2: -Systolic blood pressure is measured when the heart ventricles contract. Diastolic blood pressure is measured when the heart ventricles relax. A systolic pressure of 115 millimeters of mercury is considered normal, as is a diastolic pressure of 70. Commonly, this pressure would be stated as 115 over 70.
Detailed explanation-3: -Each cardiac cycle has a diastolic phase (also called diastole) where the heart chamber is in a state of relaxation and fills with blood that receives from the veins and a systolic phase (also called systole) where the heart chambers are contracting and pumps the blood towards the periphery via the arteries.
