and standing 120/72 mmHg. When comparing the results to the class, subject’s systolic blood pressure was lower and diastolic was higher than the class average in the supine position. The subjects pulse pressure PP was 40, lower than the class of 46 and female average of 45 while, MAP was 93, higher than the class average of 89 but lower than the female average of 95. When subjects were standing blood pressure increased from when they were lying down and sitting. This is because when lying down…

High blood pressure, also known as Hypertension, is a sustained, elevated blood pressure of 140/90 or greater. This condition develops over many years. Blood pressure is determined by the amount of blood the heart pumps and the amount of resistance to blood flow in the arteries. The more blood the heart pumps, the narrower the arteries become and therefore causes a higher blood pressure. Uncontrolled hypertension can lead to serious complications such as heart attack and stroke. Essential…

the extent of their conformity may not always be completely truthful.
