ENGLISH ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE 1. What is blood pressure? Blood pressure is the measurement of the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries. Arterial blood pressure is constantly fluctuating during the course of the cardiac cycle. The highest pressure in the cycle is called the systolic blood pressure, and rep- resents the pressure in the artery when the heart is beating.
ENGLISH B. Variations in blood pressure: Individual blood pressures vary great- ly both on a daily and a seasonal ba- sis. These variations are even more pro- nounced in hyper tense patients. Normally the blood pressure rises while at work and is at its lowest dur- ing sleeping period.
