InnovatioNation Blood Pressure

[deleted-178896]

Overall, my partner and I have spent a lot of time doing research for finding the various ranges of systolic and diastolic for the following age groups: 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, and 30+ years, but if a person in one of those ranges has low blood pressure what would that do damage for the body? Also, same goes as for high blood pressure. Thank-you, Graciela chong

Hello there,

I think that low or high blood pressure can have different effects on a person's body, and age definitely is not the only factor that will influence these effects. I think these wikipedia pages give a pretty good general description of what could possibly happen when someone has low or high blood pressure:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertension
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypotension

Let us know if you have anymore questions! I would probably do a little more research on what factors other than age can influence what happens to someone with low or high blood pressure and see what you can find. Are you doing some sort of science fair project related to blood pressure? If you need any help with brainstorming project ideas, feel free to post questions.

Thank you so much! Yes, we are doing a science fair project about blood pressure, but we did more research and now we understand it thank-you!
