Disease/Condition Glossary
Hypotension: Low blood pressure is when blood pressure drops below the normal range. It can cause dizziness, weakness, fainting, and risk of injury from falls. Also, severely low blood pressure can deprive your body of enough oxygen to carry out its functions, damaging your heart and brain. Systolic pressure is the pressure when the heart pumps blood out. On the other hand, diastolic pressure is the pressure in arteries when the heart rests between heartbeats. Ideal blood pressure should be 120/80 mmHg. Hypotension exists when the systolic pressure is less than 90 mmHg and the diastolic pressure is less than 60 mmHg.
