Pressure is something that in recent times many people
have problems with it. It is generally accepted that more than 80,120 normal
blood pressure. People around the world are familiar with the fact that if your
blood pressure is higher than this, they should visit a cardiologist
immediately.
Well, this no longer
applies!
Recently, the ESC Association issued new guidelines.
According to these new standards, the normal pressure to 140 systolic (the top
number in a blood pressure measurement) and 90 diastolic (bottom number).
It is important to mention that this does not apply for
people who suffer from diabetes, in which the limit is 130 over 80, and also
for the older population.
Previously it was considered that if some person has
blood pressure 139 over 89 it means that that person already is in hypertensive
condition. Also, that patient needs to take medications immediately in order to
avoid any additional increased risk of heart attack or stroke.
