3. Blood Pressure Standard
The World Health Organization (WHO) and Nationl High Blood Pressure Education Program
Coordinating Committee have developed a blood pressure standard, according to which areas of
low- and high-risk blood pressure are identified. This standard, however, is a general guideline as
individual's blood pressure varies among different people and different age groups...etc.
It is important that you consult with your
physician regularly. Your physician will tell
you your normal blood pressure range as
well as the point at which you will be
considered at risk.
4. Blood Pressure Fluctuation
Blood pressure fluctuates all the time!
You should not be over worried if you
encountered two or three measurements at high
levels. Blood pressure changes over the month
and even throughout the day. It is also influenced
by season and temperature.
