According to the American Heart Association (AHA), a normal blood pressure reading is 120/80 mm Hg and below. Readings below 90/60 mm Hg indicate low blood pressure, or hypotension. Readings above 140/90 mm Hg in pregnancy indicate high blood pressure, or hypertension.

High blood pressure during pregnancy is defined as 140 mm Hg or higher systolic, with diastolic 90 mm Hg or higher. Early in pregnancy, usually from 5 weeks to the middle of the second trimester, a pregnant woman's blood pressure may actually decrease.

Normal blood pressure is less than 120 over 80 (120/80). People whose blood pressure is above the normal range should ask their doctor how to lower it. SOURCES: American Heart Association.

Ranges. The National Institutes of Health cite normal blood pressure to be below 120 mm Hg systolic and 80 mm Hg diastolic.

An ideal blood pressure reading should be around 120/70, but healthy blood pressure varies from person to person. For instance, people in particularly good physical health, who exercise regularly, may have lower blood pressure. “High normal” blood pressure is considered a reading between 130/85 and 139/89.

For a normal reading, your blood pressure needs to show a top number (systolic pressure) that's between 90 and less than 120 and a bottom number (diastolic pressure) that's between 60 and less than 80.

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.

Normal blood pressure is defined when the top number (systolic) is less than 120 mm Hg and the bottom number is under 80 mm Hg. Anything less than 90 over 60 is considered low, but low doesn't always mean unhealthy or dangerous.

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.

Your blood pressure is considered normal if it's below 120/80 mm Hg. Other blood pressure measurements are categorized as: Elevated blood pressure. Elevated blood pressure is a systolic pressure ranging from 120 to 129 mm Hg and a diastolic pressure below 80 mm Hg.

Normal blood pressure is below 120/80. The American Academy of Cardiology defines blood pressure ranges as: Hypertension stage 1 is 130-139 or 80-89 mm Hg, and hypertension stage 2 is 140 or higher, or 90 mm Hg or higher.

During pregnancy: Mildly high blood pressure is blood pressure between 140/90 and 149/99 mm Hg (ie the systolic or upper number is between 140 and 149, and/or the lower or diastolic number is between 90 and 99). Moderately high blood pressure is blood pressure between 150/100 and 159/109 mm Hg.

This unit is abbreviated as mm Hg. A normal reading would be any blood pressure below 120/80 mm Hg and above 90/60 mm Hg in an adult. If you're in the normal range, no medical intervention is needed. However, you should maintain a healthy lifestyle and healthy weight to help prevent hypertension from developing.

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).

ideal blood pressure is considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg.

As a general guide: 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.

A normal reading would be any blood pressure below 120/80 mm Hg and above 90/60 mm Hg in an adult. If you're in the normal range, no medical intervention is needed. However, you should maintain a healthy lifestyle and healthy weight to help prevent hypertension from developing.
