2.4 Why should you take your blood pressure at home?
MEDISANA has had many years of experience in the field of blood pressure
measurement. The high precision of MEDISANA devices has been confirmed by
extensive clinical tests, carried out according to strict international standards. One
strong argument in favour of taking blood pressure at home is the fact that the
readings are taken in familiar surroundings under relaxed conditions. The most
important reading is the socalled „baseline value“, the one taken before breakfast,
directly after getting up in the morning. As far as it is possible, you should always
try to take your blood pressure at the same time and under the same conditions
each day.
This ensures comparable results and helps in detecting the first signs of high blood
pressure. If high blood pressure remains undetected, it increases the risk of further
cardiovascular diseases.
THEREFORE WE RECOMMEND:
Take a blood pressure reading daily and on a regular
basis, even if you are experiencing no apparent
complaints.
2.5 Blood pressure classification
The following table shows the classification of high and low blood pressure, with-
out taking age into consideration. This blood pressure assessment scale corresponds
to the guidelines of the World Health Organisation (WHO).
Low blood pressure Normal blood pressure
systolic <100 systolic 100 – 139
diastolic <60 diastolic 60 – 89
Types of high blood pressure
mild medium serious
hypertension hypertension hypertension
systolic 140 – 159 systolic 160 – 179 systolic >_180
diastolic 90 – 99 diastolic 100 – 109 diastolic >_110
WARNING
Blood pressure that is too low represents just as
great a health risk as blood pressure that is too high!
Fits of dizziness may lead to dangerous situations
arising (e.g. on stairs or in traffic)!
