so recently I had been volunteer at a place to help taking bp for elderly. And I have some questions regarding about the systolic and diastolic.
I know the normal range for systolic is 90-120, and diastolic is 60-80. But I encounter some elderly that has 148/72. So are they still consider having high bp even though the diastolic is still within the normal range?
