What is a healthy blood pressure for a thirteen year old boy?

Answer 1

The average blood pressure does not vary with age. It is usually around 120/80. I do know what i am talking about for both parents are doctors and I have reecently been sick, so I have had my blood pressure taken many many times and have overheard the average blood pressure many times. So, all though i am only an eleven year old girl, I do know what i am talking about, even if just for this question. I looked it up again, just to double check myself, so i do have the right answer. So a healthy blood pressure would be right around 120/80 for anyone.

81 Calculate your predicted maximum heart rate by using the calculation: 220 - (age) = Age Predicted Maximum Heart Rate.Measuring your blood pressure. Healthcare professionals use a stethoscope and a manual sphygmomanometer to measure your blood pressure. Typically they take the reading above your elbow. The sphygmomanometer has a bladder, cuff, bulb, and a gauge. When the bulb is pumped it inflates the bladder inside the cuff, which is wrapped around your arm. This inflation will stop the blood flow in your arteries. The stethoscope is used to listen for sound of the heartbeat, and no sound indicates that there is no flow. As the pressure is released from the bladder, you will hear the sound of the blood flowing again. That point becomes systolic reading. The diastolic reading is when you hear no sound again, which means that the blood flow is back to normal. Blood pressure 100 plus your age Medical research shows that as we age blood pressure rises slightly to accommodate an increased demand of oxygen and nutrients. It is completely natural for the first number (systolic) to be 100 plus our age. A recent study by a group of UCLA researchers came very close to corroborating Dr. Piette's guide for blood pressure of 100 plus your age for men, subtracting 10 for women, and this is after this rule had been in use for five or more decades. Are we now being taught that Dr. Piette's guide for blood pressure is wrong merely for drug company profit?

Answer 3

I assume you know what is systolic and diastolic blood pressure. In case you dont know below is the explanation:

The systolic number represents the pressure in the artery when the heart contracts and pushes out the blood to the body. The diastolic number represents the pressure in the artery when the heart is in the relaxation phase and blood flows back into the heart

For a girl: At the age of 13, following should be the values of systolic and diastolic blood pressure in millimeters [mm] of mercury [Hg]

Systolic blood pressure: 118-124

Diastolic blood pressure: 76-80

For a boy: At the age of 13, following should be the values of systolic and diastolic blood pressure

Systolic blood pressure: 117-126

Diastolic blood pressure: 75-80

Answer 4

an average blood pressure for a 13yr. old boy would be sistolic 112-128 and diastolic 66-80.
