WHO classifications

The World Health Organization (WHO) has defined six
categories for the classification of blood pressure levels.
This classification is provided in the following table.
Range of
blood pressure
levels
Optimal
Normal
Elevated
normal
Slight
hypertension
Moderate
hypertension
Severe
hypertension
The indicator for measurement classification according to the
25
WHO indicates the range for the measured blood pressure.
If the values for systoles and diastoles are within two different
WHO ranges, the device will display the higher of the two ranges.
However, the WHO only offers a general guideline. Variances
in the individual blood pressure of different persons are not
unusual. Ask your physician for blood pressure levels that are
normal for you and for levels that are considered dangerous.
