A member asked:
Is a blood pressure of 90/50 ok?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Very Low Nl, Maybe: Since the pulse pressure (90-50=40 mmhg) is reasonable, possibly accurate & possibly ok if heart output good, can function well & not dizzy on standing. Keep in mind: 90 read/estimated from only one heart/pulse beat, 50 only one heart/pulse beat & not the same heart/pulse beat + values can (& commonly do) change rapidly. Low bps correlate with lower rates cv disease progression & event rates.

Yes: The reading is on the lower side but if you feel ok i.e. Don't feel dizzy or weak and normally run lower blood pressures, the numbers are ok.
