How much is hypertension and how much is hypotension?

summary

How much is hypertension and how much is hypotension? In order to avoid this, female friends must take precautions. Low and high blood pressure (hypotension, hypertension) will affect health. So how much is hypertension and how much is hypotension? What about it? Let's take a look at it.

How much is hypertension and how much is hypotension?

First, if the blood pressure value measured for the first time is less than 120 / 80mmHg, it is considered as normal blood pressure; The first measurement of blood pressure was 120-139 / 80-89 mmHg, which was considered as high normal blood pressure; The blood pressure measured for the first time was more than 140 / 90 mmHg, but less than 180 / 110 mmHg; If the blood pressure is more than 140 / 90mmHg three times on a different day, it can be diagnosed as hypertension; If the blood pressure measured for the first time is more than 180 / 110mmhg, it is considered that it is likely to be hypertension. It is suggested that immediate antihypertensive treatment should be carried out, further examination and evaluation should be conducted in medical institutions, and blood pressure should be closely monitored until the blood pressure is reduced to a safe range.

Second, blood pressure is measured in millimetre mercury. According to the guidelines of the World Health Organization in 1999, below 120 / 80 is the ideal systolic / diastolic blood pressure, below 139 / 89 is normal blood pressure, 140 / 90 to 160 / 95 is high blood pressure, and above 161 / 96 is hypertension. Blood pressure allows blood to be normally transported to the whole body through the arteries. If the blood pressure is too low, it will not be able to supply the whole body with blood. On the contrary, if the blood pressure is too high, it may damage the blood vessels, and it may also reflect that the blood or heart may be abnormal.

Third, the right brachial artery was measured; The left upper arm was measured only when the right arm was abnormal (such as disability, paralysis, etc.). This is because the blood pressure values of the left and right upper arms of normal people are different. Due to the different anatomic position of blood vessels, the pressure of blood flow in the right side is greater than that in the left side, so the blood pressure in the right side is generally higher than that in the left side. The difference between the two groups can reach 10-20 / 10mmhg. The difference of blood pressure between the two sides of patients with hypertension may be larger than that of normal people.

matters needing attention

Generally speaking, just wake up in the morning, not yet get up when the measurement is the most Huai, the closest to the basic metabolic standard Huai blood pressure. However, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring showed that the blood pressure was different in each period. The blood pressure of normal people shows obvious diurnal fluctuation, that is, the blood pressure is the lowest at night, rises rapidly after morning activities, and has a peak at 6-10 a.m. and 4-8 p.m., and then decreases slowly. When the blood pressure is too high and too low, should be timely conditioning body, so as not to harm health.
