The difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure is the ________

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is A: mean arterial pressure.

Explanation:

The difference between systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure results in mean blood pressure. It is considered as the perfusion pressure of body tissues and organs. Its normal value must be between 60 or 80 mmHg to maintain a good perfusion. Below these values there is a risk that the tissues have ischemia.
