Normal blood pressure is given in two numbers. The systolic pressure, or number on the top, is the measurement of how hard the heart is beating at the hardest part of the pump. The diastolic, or bottom number, is the measurement of the pressure at the time when the heart is relaxed. The numbers typically recognized as "perfect" are 120/80. If the systolic pressure goes above 140 it is considered high blood pressure. The diastolic should not go above 100 for normal pressure.

The normal diastolic blood pressure is typically around 80 mmHg. This value represents the pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest between beats.
