DISPLAY SYMBOLS
The American Heart Association1 recommends the following guideline for upper limit of normal for home blood pressure readings:
AHA Home Guideline for Upper Limit of Normal BP
Systolic Blood Pressure | 135 mmHg |
Diastolic Blood Pressure | 85 mmHg |
This is a general guideline because blood pressure depends on age and morbidity. The AHA recommends a lower home blood pressure goal for certain patients, including diabetic patients, pregnant women, and patients with renal failure1.
The monitor is not intended to be a diagnostic device.
