Hypertension, also referred to as high or raised vital sign , may be a condition during which the blood vessels have persistently raised pressure. Blood is carried from the heart to all parts of the body in the vessels. Each time the guts beats, it pumps blood into the vessels. Blood pressure is made by the force of blood pushing against the walls of blood vessels (arteries) because it is pumped by the guts . The higher the pressure, the harder the guts has got to pump. Hypertension may be a serious medical condition and may increase the danger of heart, brain, kidney and other diseases. It is a serious explanation for premature death worldwide, with upwards of 1 in 4 men and 1 in 5 women – over a billion people ­– having the condition. The burden of hypertension is felt disproportionately in low- and middle-income countries, where two thirds of cases are found, largely due to increased risk factors in those populations in recent decades. High vital sign has many risk factors, including: Age. The risk of high vital sign increases as you age. Until about age 64, high vital sign is more common in men. Women are more likely to develop high vital sign after age 65.Race. High vital sign is especially common among people of African heritage, often developing at an earlier age than it does in whites. Serious complications, like stroke, attack and renal failure , are also more common in people of African heritage.Family history. High blood pressure tends to run in families.
