One of the leading indicators of human healthis blood pressure. It is generally accepted that normal human pressure varies depending on the person's age. So for persons from sixteen to twenty years the normal rate is in the range of 100-120 upper and 70-80 lower.
For people of the age group from twenty to fortyyears of normal is the value of 120-130 at 70-80 mm. gt; Art. At persons in the age of forty - sixty years the normal figure is 140 to 90. In the latter, the older age group, this value is increased to 150 by 90.
Such indicators were generally accepted until the end of the nineties. However, in the new millennium, this issue was revised somewhat, and it is generally accepted that the normal pressure of a person is up to 140 by 90.
Thus, age changes and peculiarities related to blood pressure were not taken into account.
Normally, a person's pressure consists of twoindicators. The first value indicates the level of systolic blood pressure (or upper). Systolic blood pressure - pressure in the bloodstream during systole (contraction) of the ventricles of the heart and release of a large portion of blood into the bloodstream. The second indicator - diastolic pressure (or lower blood pressure) indicates the level of pressure in the bloodstream during relaxation of the ventricles, that is, it is the lowest load in the bloodstream.
However, changes in these indicators to a largein a smaller direction, not only indicate any pathological conditions of the body. The increase or decrease in blood pressure can be physiologically conditioned. So in a state of rest (lying in bed), it is slightly below the ordinary for a person, and with significant physical exertion can rise to very large values.
Despite the change in blood pressure in normal, we increasinglywe speak about such changes, caused by the pathological state of the organism. Diseases that lead to a change in the pressure of a huge variety and list them all in this article is not possible.
As for diagnosing changesblood pressure - it's not a secret for anyone that a tonometer is used for this purpose. Due to the fact that the measurement of this indicator is not very difficult and does not require special skills, any person can diagnose its changes individually.
What is so damaging in the rise or fallpressure? Most importantly, what bothers most people is the change in overall well-being. With a decrease in blood pressure - the state is sluggish, drowsy, weakness is felt, after a short period of time, fatigue develops. With increasing blood pressure, there are often severe headaches, a feeling of pulsation of the blood vessels, possibly a feeling of heat. Clinically, the most important when changing blood pressure is the possibility of complications. Thus, with high numbers, it is possible to develop heart attacks and strokes. At a low - organs and tissues suffer from hypoxia (lack of oxygen), which leads to ischemia of the latter.
Precisely to reduce the harmful effects of pressure changes, it is important to conduct an early (independent) diagnosis of these changes.
Most people have a natural question: how to deal with pressure?
Currently, there are a large number of groups of different medications that help to create normally human pressure.
With acute and short-term changes in blood pressuresufficiently short-term use of corrective drugs. But for chronic conditions, the use of these drugs is permanent and virtually lifelong. With regard to these drugs, it is necessary to take into account their various mechanisms of action and so on, which is why it is so important that your doctor prescribes these medications.
