12378
normal blood pressure is considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg. high blood pressure is considered to be 140/90mmHg or higher. low blood pressure is considered to be 90/60mmHg or lower.

In general, blood pressure that stays at 140/90 or higher is considered high. However, for people who have diabetes or CKD, a blood pressure of 130/80 or higher is considered high.

high blood pressure is considered to be 140/90mmHg or higher (or 150/90mmHg or higher if you're over the age of 80) ideal blood pressure is usually considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg.

Normal blood pressure is below 120/80. In 2017, the American College of Cardiology released new guidelines for high blood pressure. Blood pressure between 120/80 and 129/80 is elevated blood pressure, and a blood pressure of 130/80 or above is considered high.

For example, if your blood pressure is "140 over 90" or 140/90mmHg, it means you have a systolic pressure of 140mmHg and a diastolic pressure of 90mmHg. As a general guide: normal blood pressure is considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg. high blood pressure is considered to be 140/90mmHg or higher.

Normal blood pressure: Lower than 120/80 mmHg. Elevated blood pressure: Between 120-129/80 mmHg. High blood pressure, stage 1: Between 130-139/80-90 mmHg.

['Normal: A systolic pressure below 120 with a diastolic pressure below 80.', 'Elevated: A systolic pressure of between 120 and 129 with a diastolic pressure below 80.', 'High blood pressure (hypertension stage 1): A systolic pressure of between 130 and 139, or a diastolic pressure between 80 and 89.']

High blood pressure, also called hypertension, is blood pressure that is higher than normal. Your blood pressure changes throughout the day based on your activities. Having blood pressure measures consistently above normal may result in a diagnosis of high blood pressure (or hypertension).

high blood pressure is considered to be 140/90mmHg or higher (or an average of 135/85mmHg at home) – or 150/90mmHg or higher (or an average of 145/85mmHg at home) if you're over the age of 80.

The new guidelines now define high blood pressure as 130/80 rather than 140/90. This means 46 percent of U.S. adults now are considered to have high blood pressure, or hypertension, placing them at elevated risk for heart attack and stroke.

These are the standard classifications for normal and high blood pressure. Normal blood pressure: 90/60 to under 120/80 mm Hg. Prehypertension, or risk for hypertension: 120-139/80-89 mm Hg.

When your systolic pressure is between 120 and 129 mm Hg and your diastolic pressure is less than 80 mm Hg, it means you have elevated blood pressure. Although these numbers aren't technically considered high blood pressure, you've moved out of the normal range.

Blood pressure that is too high increases your risk for heart attack and stroke. Your blood pressure should be less than 140/90 ("140 over 90"). If you have diabetes, it should be less than 130/80 ("130 over 80"). If you are 80 years and older, it should be less than 150/90 (“150 over 90”).

Normal range According to the AHA, a normal blood pressure reading is no more than 120/80 mm Hg. Consistently higher numbers may mean a person has elevated blood pressure or hypertension.

As a general guide: normal blood pressure is considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg. high blood pressure is considered to be 140/90mmHg or higher. low blood pressure is considered to be 90/60mmHg or lower.

As a general guide, the ideal blood pressure for a young, healthy adult is between 90/60 and 120/80. If you have a reading of 140/90, or more, you have high blood pressure (hypertension). This puts you at greater risk of serious health conditions, such as strokes or heart attacks.

For a young, healthy adult, normal blood pressure is about 110/70, but generally, the lower your blood pressure is, the better. If you have a reading of 140/90 or more, you have high blood pressure, also known as hypertension.
