Arterial pressure (degree) Upper value Lower value Highly underestimated - hypotension <100 <60 Ideal from 100 to 119 from 60 to 79 Normally from 120 to 129 from 80 to 84 Elevated from 130 to 139 from 85 to 89 Minor hypertension from 140 to 159 from 90 to 99 Moderate hypertension from 160 to 179 from 100 to 109 Severe hypertension> 180> 110 Systolic (arterial) pressure is the force with which the blood presses on the vessels when the heart muscle contracts. Diastolic blood pressure arises in a pause between contractions of relaxed muscles of the heart. When systolic arterial high (up to 145 mm Hg or higher), a person suffers from hypertension. in this case it is necessary to see a doctor as soon as possible.
