Information You should Know Before operating the unit

What is blood pressure?
A force is created by the heart as the ventricle forcibly ejects blood into the blood vessels and through
the vascular system. Another force is created by the arteries as they resist the blood flow. Blood pres-
sure is the result of these two forces.
What are systolic and diastolic blood pressures?
Systolic blood pressure is the highest pressure at the heart's maximum contraction. Diastolic blood
pressure is the lowest pressure when the heart is resting.
