Should I be worried if my blood pressure is 120 100?

Should I be worried if my blood pressure is 120 100?

Normal: Below 120. Elevated: 120-129. Stage 1 high blood pressure (also called hypertension): 130-139. Stage 2 hypertension: 140 or more.

What does a BP of 120 100 mean?

The normal range of diastolic pressure should be 60 to 80 mmHg in adults. Anything above this is considered abnormal (hypertension). However, when blood pressure readings are above 180/120 mmHg, they are dangerous and require immediate medical attention.

What stage of hypertension is 160 100?

Healthy blood pressure is less than 120/80. Prehypertension is a systolic pressure of 120 to 139 or a diastolic pressure of 80 to 89. Stage-1 high blood pressure ranges from a systolic pressure of 140 to 159 or a diastolic pressure of 90 to 99. Stage-2 high blood pressure is over 160/100.

Is 160 Compression good?

You should start to worry if one of your cylinders is getting close to 100 psi. Most new engines in good condition compress at around 175 psi. (160 x 100) / 175 = 91.4% for the #4 cylinder.

Does 140 100 require medication?

Stage 2 high blood pressure is 140/90 or higher. If you get a blood pressure reading of 180/110 or higher more than once, seek medical treatment right away. A reading this high is considered “hypertensive crisis.” Readings between 120/80 and 129/89 are considered pre-hypertension.

What drink is best for high blood pressure?

7 Drinks for Lowering Blood Pressure

1. Tomato juice. Growing evidence suggests that drinking one glass of tomato juice per day may promote heart health.
2. Beet juice.
3. Prune juice.
4. Pomegranate juice.
5. Berry juice.
6. Skim milk.
7. Tea.

Can engine compression be too high?

Engine damage can be caused by compression pressures that are too high and can result in difficult starting and detonation.

What should I do if my BP 140 100?

Your blood pressure is considered high (stage 1) if it reads 130/80. Stage 2 high blood pressure is 140/90 or higher. If you get a blood pressure reading of 180/110 or higher more than once, seek medical treatment right away. A reading this high is considered “hypertensive crisis.”

What does 100 psi mean on a compression test?

Rob responded, The compression tests tells a lot about the condition of the engine. 120-130 psi is fine, but 100 psi and below is not so good. Compression dropping to 100 psi means either rings, or valves.

Which is the lowest compression reading in an engine?

So, let’s say that cylinder #4 gave you the highest reading of 170 PSI. Well 170 X 0.15 gives you 26 (25.5 rounded off). Now, the next step is to subtract 26 from 170 -which gives us 144 PSI. So then, 144 PSI is the lowest possible compression reading that any one of the rest of the engine cylinders can have.

What are the typical results of a compression test?

Typical results of a compression test were reported to us: #1-100 psi; #2-130 psi; #3-95 psi; #4-120 psi. Someone else wrote to say, I am beginning to think my 1600cc engine may be ready to go, it seems I am getting some bearing noise, and now all of a sudden one cylinder has dropped from 127 psi to 100 psi. The other three are all at 125-127 psi.

What should the compression reading be on a Yamaha four stroke?

On say a 250 HP Yamaha four-stroke. If you do a compression test, ( click here to learn how to perform a compression test.) and you have the controls closed. You will see a good compression reading of 150-160 PSI. Then, if you put the handles in WOT.
