* The icons and meanings are as follow. A FEW WORDS ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE Blood pressure is the force exerted on the walls of your blood vessels as blood flows through them. Your heart is like a pump. When it contracts, or beats, it sends a surge of blood through the blood vessels and pressure increases. This is called your systolic pressure. When your heart relaxes between beats, your blood pressure decreases. This is called your diastolic pressure.
These two numbers provide important information about your health. The more difficult it is for your blood to flow through your blood vessels, the higher both numbers will be. When blood pressure is consistently above normal it is called hypertension (High blood pressure).
