What is the difference from systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure?

What does it mean when the blood pressure reading is 70 over 38?

A blood pressure reading of 70 over 38 means that the systolic pressure is 70 mm Hg and that the diastolic pressure is 38 mm Hg. Systolic pressure is the maximum pressure present in an artery during contractions of the heart due to blood being pumped through the arteries. Diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure present in an artery prior to another contraction by the heart and more blood being pumped through the artery. Now, most normal blood pressures fall in the range of 90/60 to 130/80. A blood pressure reading of 70/38 means the person having their blood pressure checked has hypotension, or low blood pressure. This means the heart, brain, and other parts of the body are most likely not getting enough blood, and there appears to be something wrong with the body. What is exactly is wrong would be up to a doctor to diagnose, as there are several factors that could lead to low blood pressure.
