Education. All physicians, including surgeons, must first complete an undergraduate degree program, usually in a science area such as biology or chemistry. Following undergraduate school, you then must complete four years of medical school and a three-year residency.
For most people, perfect BP is 120/80, which means that the systolic number is 120 and the diastolic pressure is 80. When wanting to know if a person has perfect blood pressure, it is best to check it various times throughout the day as it can change depending on the time of day and what the person had been doing prior to checking their BP.
So, saying that someone has an âelevated pulse pressureâ is usually the same as saying that they have an âelevated systolic blood pressure,â which is already known to be an important clinical finding requiring treatment. A person with normal blood pressure (120/80) will have a pulse pressure of 40 (120-80). But that doesnât mean that a person with a pulse pressure of 40 has normal blood pressure. Clearly, a blood pressure of 140/100 is much different than 120/80.
