The K-Zone: Biophysical data tables: blood pressure

This table gives the normal range -- that is, the range into which measurements on about 95% of adults fall -- of arterial blood pressure in healthy subjects. These values are derived from the traditional British `muffled end point' method for estimating diastolic pressure; `silent end point' values may be as much as 10 mmHg lower.
