крвен притисок

The amount of pressure blood exerts against the walls of the arteries. The upper number refers to the systolic pressure (the amount of pressure when the heart contracts), and the lower number refers to the diastolic pressure (the amount of pressure when the heart relaxes). During pregnancy, blood pressure drops toward the second trimester and then rises again in the third trimester. High blood pressure during pregnancy can be caused by preeclampsia.
