High Blood Pressure
Stage 1
Stage 2
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 read-
ing to the defined levels and provides a helpful cue if your
reading falls into one of the stages that could potentially indi-
cate increased risk. For more information, refer to the RISK
CATEGORY INDEX section of this manual.
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.
