It has been further demonstrated that lowering systolic blood pressure (SBP) as well diastolic blood pressure (DBP) confers benefit. [1] In the late 1970s, reexamination of Framingham data ...

Diastolic heart failure is defined clinically when signs and symptoms of heart failure are present in the presence of preserved left ventricular systolic function (ejection fraction >45%). The ...

So the graphs on this page show the upper half of the blood pressure range found in children. Normal BP is defined as systolic and diastolic blood pressures that are below the 90th percentile. The ...

Mean systolic BP varied from 112±11 mmHg to 138±7 mmHg and mean diastolic BP from 59±8 mmHg to 86±7 mmHg. Hypertension was not defined or defined differently, from ≥130/85 mmHg to ≥150/95 mmHg, and ...
