It is among hundreds of artifacts linked to the doomed ship to be sold at auction later this month. 'Unthinkable': This chilling hand-drawn building plan was used to describe how the 'unsinkable' RMS Titanic met its fate.
The bottom number, called the diastolic pressure, is the measurement as the heart relaxes between beats. Normal blood pressure is a systolic pressure of less than 120 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) and a diastolic pressure of less than 80 mm Hg, or 120/80 mm Hg, according to the American Heart Association (AHA).Having a blood pressure greater than 140/90 mm Hg is considered high blood pressure or hypertension.A blood pressure level between normal and hypertension, is called prehypertension, meaning it is higher than normal, but not high enough to be considered hypertension.aving a blood pressure greater than 140/90 mm Hg is considered high blood pressure or hypertension. A blood pressure level between normal and hypertension, is called prehypertension, meaning it is higher than normal, but not high enough to be considered hypertension.
A normal blood pressure for a healthy adult ranges from 90 to 120 mm Hg systolic and from 60 to 80 mm Hg diastolic. Under normal circumstances, blood volume remains constant at 5,000 mL. blood pressure with a systolic of 140 mm Hg or higher or a diastolic pressure of 90 mm Hg or higher is considered high, although for patients with certain chronic conditions, like coronary artery disease, the guidelines vary.
