Doktor Damir Petrušić objašnjava šta znači ako je donji pritisak stalno nizak, a gornji visok
Krvni pritisak je jedan od osnovnih pokazatelja zdravlja kardiovaskularnog sistema. Sastoji se od dve vrednosti: sistolnog pritiska, koji predstavlja pritisak u krvnim sudovima u trenutku kada se srce steže i izbacuje krv, i dijastolnog pritiska, koji pokazuje pritisak u fazi opuštanja srca između dva otkucaja. U većini slučajeva, ove dve vrednosti se povećavaju ili smanjuju zajedno, ali postoje situacije u kojima taj odnos može biti poremećen.
TL;DR
- Blood pressure consists of systolic (heart contracting) and diastolic (heart relaxing) values.
- Divergent blood pressure is when systolic pressure is high and diastolic pressure is low.
- Hyperthyroidism is a common cause of divergent blood pressure.
- In hyperthyroidism, increased thyroid hormones raise systolic pressure and lower diastolic pressure due to vasodilation.
- Arterial hypotension is a persistently low blood pressure with symptoms like dizziness and fatigue.
- The lower limit of normal diastolic pressure varies by individual and circumstances.
- A lower diastolic pressure without symptoms may not be problematic, but high systolic pressure and slow pulse warrant medical attention.
