Stroke
Hypertension You and your blood pressure 120 = Systolic pressure 70 = Diastolic pressure
Blood pressure 110 72 130 80 160 90 GOOD! Not so Good! BAD!!
What blood pressure readings mean As you can see from the blood pressure chart, only one of the numbers has to be higher or lower than it should be to count as either high blood pressure or low blood pressure: 90 over 60 (90/60) or less: You may have low blood pressure More than 90 over 60 (90/60) and less than 120 over 80 (120/80): Your blood pressure reading is ideal and healthy. More than 120 over 80 and less than 140 over 90 (120/80-140/90): You have a normal blood pressure reading but it is a little higher than it should be, and you should try to lower it. Make healthy changes to your lifestyle. 140 over 90 (140/90) or higher (over a number of weeks): You may have high blood pressure (hypertension). Change your lifestyle - see your doctor or nurse and take any medicines they may give you. Unit 5: Prevention & Control of Disease
