1. lmportant
information
on
the subiect
of
blood-pressure
and
its
measurement
1.1.
How
does
high/low
blood-pressure
arise?
The level
of
blood-pressure
is determined
in a
part
ol the
brain,
the so-called
circulatory
centre,
and adapted
to the
respective
situation
by
way of feedback
via the nervous
system.
To adiust
the blood-pressure,
the strength
and
f requency
of
the heari
(Pulse),
as
well as
the width
of
circulatory
blood vessels
is altered.
The
latter
is effected
by
way
of fine
muscles in
the blood-vessel
walls.
The level
of
arterial blood-pressure
changes
periodically
during
the
heart activity:
During
the
((
blood
ejection
)
(Systole) the
value is maximal
(systolic
blood-pressure
value),
at the
end of
the heart's
(
rest
period
)
(Diastole)
minimal
(diastolic
blood-pressure
value).
The
blood-pressure
values
must
lie within
certain
normal
ranges
in
order to
prevent
particular
diseases'
1.2.
Which
values
are
normal?
Blood
pressure
is too
high if at
rest,
the diastolic
pressure
is above
90 mmHg
and/or
the systolic
blood-pressure
is
over
160 mmHg.
ln this
case,
please
consult
your
doctor
immediately.
Long-term
values
at
this level
endanger
your
health
due
to the associated
advancing
damage
to the
blood
vessels
in
your
body.
