Arterial blood pressure is "normal" when the systolic pressure is 90-119 mmHg and the diastolic pressure is 60-79 mmHg. When the arterial pressure is ≥120/80 mmHg‚ a person is considering being hypertensive [1-3]. According to U.S. national guidelines (JNC 7 Report and JNC 8 Report)‚ the following represents different stages of hypertension: Classification Systolic (mmHg) Diastolic (mmHg) Normal <120 <80 Prehypertension 120-139 80-89 Stage 1 140-159 90-99 Stage 2 >160 >100 Treatment of Hypertension

Blood Pressure The function of the heart is to circulate blood around the body. The heart comprises of four chambers: Right Atrium Left Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle Functionally the heart comprises of two pumps: The right atrium receives blood from the body (de-oxygenated blood) and the right ventricle pumps it into the lungs for aeration (removal of carbon dioxide and add oxygen). The left atrium receives the oxygenated blood from the lungs and the left ventricle pumps
