ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

What is Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the artery

walls while blood flows through the arteries. The

pressure measured when the heart contracts and

sends blood out of the heart is systolic (highest) blood

pressure. The pressure measured when the heart

dilates with blood flowing back into the heart is called

diastolic (lowest) blood pressure.

Why Measure Your Blood Pressure?

Among today’s various health problems, those associated

with high blood pressure are very common. High blood

pressure dangerously correlates with cardiovascular

diseases. Therefore, blood pressure monitoring is

important for identifying those at risk.

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 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

Category Systolic (mmHg) Diastolic (mmHg)

Normal Less than 120 and Less than 80

Prehypertension 120-139 or 80-89

High Blood Pressure

Stage 1 140-159 or 90-99

Stage 2 160 or higher or 100 or higher
