  • Page 23: About "Blood Pressure

    ABOUT “BLOOD PRESSURE” What is blood pressure? The heart is a pump that circulates blood throughout your body. Blood is pumped from the heart at a constant pressure into arteries. This pressure is called the arterial blood pressure and represents, in general terms, your blood pressure. Blood pressure is indicated by several kinds of pressures, including the systolic pressure that occurs when the heart pumps blood and the diastolic pressure that occurs when blood returns to the heart.
