What do the numbers on the Blood Pressure Monitor mean?
I decided to try on my mom’s blood pressure monitor for fun. I held my wrist slightly above heart level, stayed still and breathed evenly.
next to the first number, it says SYS. mmHg
Next to the second number, it says DIA. mmHg
Last is the pulse
my numbers were 90, 54 then 90 again
what do these mean?
By the way, I’m 16. I’m 5’5″ and 105 pounds. Thanks for all the response- very informative!
Those numbers measure basically the pressures in your arteries during your cardiac cycle. Your systolic or top number measures the pressure when your heart is beating or contracting. This pushes blood through. The diastolic or bottom number measures the pressure in between beats or while your heart is at rest. Also your blood vessels can also contract or expend depending on the situation like temperature or if your scared, etc. Your pulse measures how many times your heart beats in one minute. For an adult you are looking for a blood pressure of 120/80 and a pulse 60 to 80.
