High Blood Pressure is the most aggressive cardiovascular disease, with the highest incidence in the adult population. Although more than two centuries have passed since the first measurement of the pressure with which blood circulates in arteries, there is still no unanimity regarding its normal values.
World Health Organization experts consider values below 14/9 to be normal and those above 16/9.5 up to the age of 60 to be abnormal, hypertensive. At birth, blood pressure is 5/3, at one month - 8/6, and from puberty to maturity, blood pressure should maintain these same values.
The significance of the numbers: the first, always higher, representing the maximum or systolic pressure, mainly reflects the state of the heart, and the second number, smaller, minimum, representing diastolic pressure, is relevant to the condition of the peripheral arteries.
Blood pressure is considered fluctuating only when the difference between measurements is more than 5-6 mmHg (millimeters of mercury). Blood pressure elevation can be standalone or may result from various diseases (almost all renal, vascular, cardiac, collagen disorders, metabolic conditions, diabetes, gout, autonomic and central nervous system dysfunctions, cancer, especially pheochromocytoma in the adrenal glands, blood disorders, or endocrine gland diseases, and many others).
Symptoms of hypertension (most common) include: dizziness, vague headaches (especially in the occipital area), palpitations, vision disturbances, ringing in the ears, numbness of the face, tongue, or limbs, balance disturbances, nausea or vomiting, precordial discomfort, feeling of heavy head (epistaxis), drowsiness, etc.
