What does the blood pressure reading 130/90 mean? Is this a healthy blood pressure or not?
Lorico [155]

Answer with Explanation:

High Blood Pressure refers to a condition wherein the heart is pumping more blood, thus causing a narrowing of the arteries. Such narrowing of arteries causes the pressure of blood to increase.

A person's blood pressure is dependent on the "systole" and "diastole" of the person. The "systole" is the pressure on top of the reading and is caused by the contraction of the ventricles (between the first and second heart sounds). The "diastole" refers to the relaxation of the muscles.

Depending on your health condition and age, a blood pressure reading of 130/90 may be normal or abnormal. For example, if you have a kidney disease, your blood pressure may be elevated than normal. So, this makes 130/90 a normal blood pressure for you. However, if your normal blood pressure is 120/80 then you suddenly get 130/90, then it means this is abnormal for you. There are probably factors, such as eating salt foods that contributed to this.

<u>Normal blood pressure is 120/80 and less than 140/90.</u> Thus, we can consider 130/90 as a healthy blood pressure. Those blood pressure lower than this may also be acceptable. Remember that when you are getting older, your blood pressure is increasing because the arteries in your body is changing regarding its structures.

Why is informed consent an important patient right? Check all of the boxes that apply.
muminat

Answer:

Informed consent is important to the patient for all of the above reasons because it allows the patient to know about his treatment and the risk involved, as well as giving him freedom of choice and participation in the health care process.

Explanation:

Before being subjected to an investigation, diagnostic study or treatment —especially if it involves risk— a patient must know everything about the procedure and has the right to express his or her acceptance or rejection by signing an informed consent.

If the terms <em>"informed</em>" and <em>"consent" </em>are analyzed separately, it can be established that you are informed because information related to a procedure is dispensed, while consent implies acceptance or refusal of the procedure.

Informed consent provided:

  1. <em>The right of the patient to receive information of interest, with the benefits and negative —or harmful—side effects of a given medical treatment being explained. </em>
  2. <em>A resource that allows the patient to participate in decisions related to his/her health and medical treatment. </em>
  3. <em>The patient's ability to make decisions about the types of medical treatments and procedures offered to him. </em>

The purpose of informed consent is to ensure, to the fullest extent possible, that a patient knows the positive and negative aspects of a treatment, makes a judgment, and decides whether or not to accept it.
