Examination of blood pressure - what does this mean

Examination of blood pressure is a medical procedure used to measure the force of blood against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps blood. a blood pressure reading is taken by placing an inflatable cuff around the upper arm and measuring the pressure of the blood as the cuff is inflated and then slowly deflated. the readings are reported as two numbers, the systolic pressure (the top number) and the diastolic pressure (the bottom number). high blood pressure, or hypertension, occurs when the force of the blood against the artery walls is too high.

What happens during the disease - examination of blood pressure

The pathogenesis of high blood pressure is a complex process involving many different factors, including genetic predisposition, lifestyle factors, and environmental factors. these factors can lead to an increase in blood volume, an increase in vascular resistance, or a combination of both. this increase in pressure can cause damage to the heart, kidneys, and other organs, leading to hypertension and its associated complications.
