What is the typical range for systolic blood pressure in a healthy adult?

  1. 100-140 mm Hg

  2. 110-130 mm Hg

  3. 90-120 mm Hg

  4. 120-150 mm Hg

The correct answer is: 90-120 mm Hg

In a healthy adult, the typical range for systolic blood pressure is between 90-120 mm Hg. This range is considered normal for adults and indicates healthy blood pressure levels. Options A, B, and D suggest higher ranges, which would typically be considered elevated blood pressure or hypertension in a healthy adult. It is important for healthcare professionals, including CNAs, to understand the normal range of systolic blood pressure to monitor and assess patients accurately.
