BLOOD PRESSURE STANDARD
The table below contains defined levels for
hypertension that are publicly available from the
National Heart Lung and Blood Institute at the U.S.
National Institutes of Health (NIH)
(http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/dci/Diseases/Hbp/HBP_WhatIs.
html)
. Users can compare their own blood pressure
readings against these defined levels to determine if
they may be potentially at increased risk.
This table is applicable to most adults aged 18 and
older. Blood pressure tends to go up and down, even
in people who normally don’t have high readings. If
your numbers stay above thenormalrange most
of the time, you may be at increased risk and should
consult your physician.
Although one can easily find where their own
blood pressure readings fall on this table, this
monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category
Index that automatically compares each reading
to the defined levels and provides a helpful cue if
your reading falls into one of the stages that could
potentially indicate increased risk. See page 22 for
more information on this feature.
Please note that cues provided by this monitor are
only intended to assist you in using this table. The
table and cues are only provided for convenience
to help you understand your non-invasive
blood pressure reading as it relates to the NIH
information. They are not a substitute for a medical
examination by your physician. It is important for
you to consult with your physician regularly. Your
physician will tell you your normal blood pressure
range as well as the point at which you may
actually be considered to be at risk
.
