A question from I love you.: What food should a person with low blood pressure eat?
I have orthostatic hypotension what should I have? my blood pressure often gets really low, what other steps should I take?
My chosen answer:
Answer by Cynthia Leighton
You really need to talk to your own medical professional about this – you may be referred to a dietician or nutritionist.
In terms of other steps?
1/ When it dips suddenly in the heat while you are walking, sit down, even if that means on the ground. Beats hitting it unconscious. Wear a wide brim light hat when you’re in the heat on a sunny day.
2/ Stay hydrated. Drink the right amount of water for your body.
3/ Stay in balance for electrolytes/salts and all – ask your doctor!
4/ When you have your blood drawn, ask to use the lying down position. Beats the floor.

A question from sylver_shine: What could be the cause of low blood pressure, two blood transfusions?
My grandma is 72 years old. She is a diabetic, on blood thinners, and had heart surgery (replaced valve) 6 years ago. She had low blood pressure and had to have two blood tranfusions within the last three months. I’m thinking the doctors will recommend a bone marrow biopsy next. Does anyone have any experience with this type of thing? Any ideas as to what it could be?

Question posed by its never easy: What is the normal blood pressure reading for a 42 yr old female?
I saw a nurse at my local heath centre today and she gave me a reading of 191/70. She did say it was on the low side of normal. Is this correct or might I have misheard her. I just think the top reading is a bit high?
Top answer:
Answer by Lori
191/70 is VERY high. I would see your doctor and have your blood pressure checked again.the normal range is 120/80.

intensive care sleep EKG and SpO2 monitoring
October 12, 2011 By 11 Comments
Of the huge number of videos available about blood pressure monitoring here is one which I particularly liked.
i finally got a monitor that has an SpO2 (pulse oximetry) module as well… so you can not only see my EKG, but also my respiratory frequency AND oxygen saturation! =) i also got a NIBP (non-invasive blood pressure) module, but it’ll be about two weeks until i have the fitting adapter for it. then i will be able to monitor EKG, RESP, SpO2, NIBP. yay! \o/
