- A look at diastolic blood pressure - Harvard Health
The bottom (diastolic) number in blood pressure plays an essential role in heart health Diastolic pressure is the pressure during the resting phase between heartbeats, as coronary vessels supply oxygen to the heart muscle It’s important to keep the number low, but not too low
- Systolic Vs Diastolic: What Is The Difference . . .
Diastolic pressure shows the pressure in arteries between beats Elevated diastolic pressure can signal stiff or narrowed arteries, increasing cardiac workload The difference between systolic and diastolic pressure, known as pulse pressure, also offers clues about arterial health
- Diastolic Blood Pressure
Diastolic blood pressure indicates how much pressure the blood is exerting against the artery walls when the heart is relaxed between beats Diastolic blood pressure is the bottom number of the blood pressure reading We’ll take an in-depth look into diastolic blood pressure
- Systolic vs. Diastolic Blood Pressure - NMW Cardiology
Systolic and diastolic blood pressure are essential components measured during a blood pressure reading Systolic pressure represents the force of blood against arterial walls when the heart contracts (beats), while diastolic pressure reflects the pressure when the heart is at rest between beats
- Diastole vs. Systole: Guide to Blood Pressure - Healthline
Learn what diastolic and systolic blood pressure mean and how they relate to risk, symptoms, and complications of high and low blood pressure
