Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is when the pressure of the blood being pumped through your arteries is higher than it should be. High blood pressure, or …Web

Carotid sinus and aortic arch autonomic afferents: Slowly adapting myelinated Aδ and unmyelinated C-fibers, which branch and form loops within the inner adventitial layer of the arterial wall, serve as the peripheral transduction substrates associated with high-pressure baroreceptors ().These carotid and aortic afferents respond to vascular wall …Web

High pressure switches have high pressure-proof pressure limits and can operate from 1 psig up to over 10,000 psig, with 4500 psig and 7500 psig being the average. They can be actuated using diaphragms, pistons, or piezoelectric crystals. ... There are two main functions of a pressure switch. One is to maintain the pressure or reservoir levels ...Web

The bottom number (called "diastolic pressure") is the pressure when your heart is resting between beats. A blood pressure of 120/80 is read as "120 over 80." Normal blood pressure in adults 18 and older is less than 120/80. In general, for adults 18 and older, blood pressure that stays at 140/90 or more is considered high.Web

Severe high blood pressure can harm kidney function over a relatively short period of time. Even mild forms of high blood pressure can damage kidneys over several years. Blood pressure – fast facts.

A high-pressure fuel pump is responsible for delivering fuel from the tank to the engine under pressure. It has two functions; first, it delivers gas at a higher pressure than what can be achieved by gravity alone, and second, it directs the flow of gas into the carburetor or injected system. It's important to note that if your vehicle's ...Web

Chronic high blood pressure (higher than 120/80 mmHg) causes hypertensive heart disease. As people get older and continue to have high blood pressure, their risk of heart disease increases.
