  • Page 27: 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.
  • Page 28: Blood Pressure Q&A

    BLOOD PRESSURE Q&A Why is the blood pressure measured at home different from that measured by the physician or at a hospital? Your blood pressure may vary due to exercise, the ambient temperature or your mental state. When you have a physician or nurse measure your blood pressure, the pressure value is likely to be 10 to 20 mmHg higher than usual due to anxiety and/or stress.
