Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The blood pressure of Person P is reported to be 150/90 mmHg. The number 150 indicates the contraction of the heart muscles that develops pressure for the circulation of the blood and 90 indicates the pressure developed in the blood vessels during the relaxation of the heart muscles. The contraction of the heart causes the development of systolic pressure and the relaxation of heart muscles causes the development of diastolic pressure.
