BLOOD PRESSURE STANDARD
The table below contains defined levels for hypertension that are
publicly available from the American Heart Association
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 Category
Normal

High Blood Pressure (hypertension) Stage 1

immediately)

Blood pressure tends to go up and down, even in people who normally
don't have high readings. If your numbers stay above the normal range
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 21 for more
information on this feature.
