    The results of these studies prompted public health campaigns to increase public awareness of hypertension and promoted the measurement and treatment of high blood pressure. These measures appear to have contributed at least in part to the observed 50% fall in stroke and ischemic heart disease between 1972 and 1994. [21]

  3. Blood pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure

    For people with high blood pressure, higher heart rate variability (HRV) is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation. [ 51 ] Both high systolic pressure and high pulse pressure (the numerical difference between systolic and diastolic pressures) are risk factors. [ 49 ]

  4. Pulse pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_pressure

    Pulse pressure is calculated as the difference between the systolic blood pressure and the diastolic blood pressure. [3] [4]The systemic pulse pressure is approximately proportional to stroke volume, or the amount of blood ejected from the left ventricle during systole (pump action) and inversely proportional to the compliance (similar to elasticity) of the aorta.
