Ninja Nerds!
In this lecture Professor Kristin Beach, MSN, BSN, RN will be presenting on Blood Pressure Basics. During this lecture we will be starting with an overview on how blood pressure is measured and going over what systole and diastole mean. We will then be discussing blood pressure in comparison to cardiac output and stroke volume. We hope you enjoy this lecture and be sure to support us below!

Thanks for your video. I have a few questions. (1) Blood pressure is measured in mmHg. What is the area unit? (compared to atmospheric pressure of about 14.7 pounds per square inch). (2) Is the Diastolic pressure a form of static pressure (going in all directions) and Systolic pressure a form of dynamic pressure (mainly going away from heart)? (3) The heart contraction sends a wave through the main arteries blood stream that is faster than the main flow (like a wave pushing downstream every two seconds on a river), causing a continual flow toward the capillary beds. Edit: I had read (3) in another video, but I don’t think it’s right. The heart contraction injects blood from the left ventricle, causing pressure at the source of the “river”; the blood is not in a continuous stream in which the contraction adds more blood and pressure. Edit: In programming language, it’s like continually inserting a new item at the beginning (or end) of a list. Each item is a small volume of blood.
