A blood pressure reading has two numbers, which people often call the upper (systolic) and lower (diastolic) numbers. Systolic is the top number on the reading and is the higher one. Diastolic is ...

A pictorial representation of systolic and diastolic murmurs is below. Murmurs are described by their timing in the cardiac cycle, intensity, shape, pitch, location, radiation and response to ...

HF guidelines place a special emphasis on the detection of subclinical left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic dysfunction, and the timely identification of risk factors for HF. Impairment of ...

The timing of a murmur is crucial to accurate diagnosis. A murmur is either systolic, diastolic or continuous throughout systole and diastole. Remember: Systole occurs between the S1 and S2 heart ...

So the graphs on this page show the upper half of the blood pressure range found in children. Normal BP is defined as systolic and diastolic blood pressures that are below the 90th percentile. The ...

A blood pressure reading consists of two values: systolic value – blood pressure while the heart is squeezing diastolic value – blood pressure while the heart is relaxing Systolic is when the ...

cTnT data are presented descriptively. Conclusions: In this cohort, LV systolic function was not significantly altered after intermittent activity. A transient depression in global diastolic filling ...

Impairment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function as well as systolic function appear very early in the course of heart disease. Recent HF guidelines, therefore, place special emphasis on the ...

So the graphs on this page show the upper half of the blood pressure range found in children. Normal BP is defined as systolic and diastolic blood pressures that are below the 90th percentile. The ...
