Late last year, the European Society of Cardiology Adjusted normal, low and high pressure.
Arterial pressure - one of the main indicators of the cardiovascular system.
AD index depends on the speed and strength of the heart, as well as the volume of blood that flows through it myself for a minute.Blood pressure consists of two parameters, the upper and lower pressure.
Systolic blood pressure (top number) indicates the pressure in the arteries when the heart pumps in which blood and diastolic (bottom number) associated with the pressure in the arteries when the heart relaxation muscles.

blood pressure Norma
120/80 is the absolute norm for an adult, but in addition to that there are age guidelines:
- 16-20 years: top 100-120 mmHg and 70-80 mmHg lower,
- 20 - 40 years old: the upper 120-130 mmHg and 70-80 mmHg lower,
- 40 - 60 years old: top 140 mmHg, bottom to 90 mm Hg,
- Over 60 years: top 150 mmHg, 90 mmHg lower
If a teenager 16 years pressure of 100/70 is normal, for a person over the age of 60 years it is the pressure to recognize the danger.
Elevated blood pressure
If a person is diagnosed routinely pressure exceeding 140/90 index, then there is a pathology.Decreased blood pressure
Hypotension as diagnosis give the person who has recorded a pressure of 100 to 60. However, for example, for athletes and people with complex physical labor, the rate of 100/60 is normal.
