Blood pressure is shown as two numbers, such as 120/80 (say 120 over 80). The top number is the pressure when the heart pumps blood. It is called the systolic pressure. The bottom number is the pressure when the heart relaxes and fills with blood.It is called the diastolic pressure. An ideal blood pressure for an adult is less than 120/80. High blood pressure is 140/90 or higher. Prehypertension is between 120/80 and 140/90.t is called the systolic pressure. The bottom number is the pressure when the heart relaxes and fills with blood.
