Table for classification of blood pressure values (unit of measurement mmHg) for adults:
Range
Hypotonia (degraded blood pressure)
Normal range
Pre-hypertensive blood pressure range*
High blood pressure - degree
High blood pressure - degree
(*) Blood pressure range that might transfer to high blood pressure
The WHO classification in the display shows the range of the
measured blood pressure.
If the values for systolic and diastolic pressure are in two dif-
ferent WHO ranges (e.g. systolic in the grade
range and diastolic pressure in the normal range), the WHO
classification on the unit always indicates the higher range
(grade hypertension in the example described).

WHO classification:
The World Health Organization (WHO) and National High Blood
Pressure Education Program Coordinating Committee have de-
veloped a blood pressure standard, according to which areas of
low- and high-risk blood pressure are identified. This standard,
however, is a general guideline as individual's blood pressure
varies among different people and different age groups ... etc.
It is important that you consult with your physician regularly.
Your physician will tell you your normal blood pressure range
as well as the point at which you will be considered at risk.
Diastolic

between 60 and 80
between 80 and 90
between 90 and 100

5.6 Resting indicator measurement (using HSD diagnostics)
The most frequent error made when measuring blood pressure
is taking the measurement when not at rest (haemodynamic
stability), which means that both the systolic and the diastolic
blood pressures are incorrect in this case. During blood pres-
sure measurement, the device automatically determines wheth-
er the circulatory system is sufficiently at rest or not.
If there is no indication that the circulatory system is not suf-
ficiently at rest, (haemodynamic stability) is displayed and
