What is Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the inside of the artery wall while
blood flows through the artery. The pressure measured when the heart
contracts and sends blood out of the heart is the "systolic" reading (higher
number). The pressure measured when the heart dilates with blood flowing
into the heart is called the "diastolic" (lowest number) blood pressure.
