WHO HEALTH INDICATOR
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the National High Blood Pressure
Education Program Coordinating Committee have developed a blood pres- sure standard, classifying blood pressure ranges into 4 stages. This unit is equipped with an innovative blood pressure classifi- cation indicator, which visually indicates the assumed risk level (normal, prehyper- tension, stage 1 hypertension, or stage 2 hypertension) of each reading. Symbols are described below and classifications follow the WHO guidelines as described earlier in this manual (page 7).
