Multiple Choice Questions on Gastrointestinal Disorders Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Your physician measures your blood pressure as 120/110. What SHOULD be your response?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: you're concerned because the diastolic number indicates your heart will have to work harder. This is because the diastolic number (110) represents the pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest between beats, which should ideally be below 80. A high diastolic pressure indicates increased resistance in the arteries, making the heart work harder to pump blood. The systolic number (120) being within the normal range is not as concerning as the elevated diastolic pressure. Summary: - Choice A is incorrect because the diastolic number being high is a cause for concern. - Choice C is incorrect as blood pressure numbers are crucial indicators of heart function. - Choice D is incorrect as the systolic number being low is not the primary concern in this case.
