Hypertension is systemic blood pressure that consistently has a systolic reading above mmHg and a diastolic reading above mmHg. Chronic hypertension weakens the walls of arteries and contributes to the deterioration called Weakened arteries may rupture, which often occurs in these organs: the and the kidneys. Chronic hypertension causes the left ventricle to work harder to pump blood against the higher pressure in the arteries. As a result the left ventricle may enlarge, this is called left ventricular The coronary capillaries may not be sufficient to supply the abnormally enlarged myocardium, and exercise may bring on chest pains called Such pain is a result of lack to the myocardium. : hypertrophy = 85-90 : oxygen : arteriosclerosis = brain : 130-140 = angina
