                        English ABOUT “BLOOD PRESSURE” What is blood pressure? The heart is a pump that circulates blood throughout your body. Blood is pumped  from the heart at a constant pressure into arteries. This pressure is called the  arterial blood pressure and represents, in general terms, your blood pressure.  Blood pressure is indicated by several kinds of pressures, including the systolic  pressure that occurs when the heart pumps blood and the diastolic pressure that  occurs when blood returns to the heart
