Blood pressure

Measurement of the blood pressure

A blood pressure monitor measures the pressure of the blood. The blood pressure is the pressure that is exerted to the walls of the blood vessels. A too low or too high pressure of the blood is dangerous for the health. The pressure of the blood consists out of two values: the systolic pressure and the underpressure. The systolic pressure is the pressure at which the blood is pumped by the heart through the blood vessels. The under pressure is the pressure in the blood vessels when the heart relaxes and fills with blood again.
