What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?

When ventricles contract and pump blood
out of the heart, the blood pressure reach-
es its maximum value in the cycle, which
is called systolic pressure. When the ven-
tricles relax, the blood pressure reaches its
minimum value in the cycle, which is called
diastolic pressure.
What is the standard blood pressure classification?

(WHO) and International Society of Hypertension (ISH) in 1999 is as follows:
