Blood Pressure Chart (Cardiac Tools)

Blood Pressure is the measurement of pressure of the blood flowing through your blood vessels (called arteries) against the vessel walls. Medindia's simple tool alerts you if for your age your blood pressure is abnormal by displaying the normal values. This measurement is important if you are using a home electronic device to check your blood pressure. Please remember to put on the cuff properly and if your pressure is high check it again when you are more relaxed. Please remember that your pressure may be higher after a meal or exercise.
