The pressure measured when the heart contracts and pumps the blood into the vessels is called systolic blood pressure, and the pressure measured when the heart relaxes and fills up with blood is called diastolic blood pressure. The unit of BP is millimeters of mercury (mmHg). The normal blood pressure range for adults is 120-80 mmHg (systolic should be below 120, while diastolic should be below 80). The ideal blood pressure for men and women (even for women over 40 and for women over 50) can be slightly different.
