Blood pressure tends to go up and down, even
in people who normally don't have high readings.
If your numbers stay above the "normal" range
most of the time, you may be at increased risk and
should consult your physician.

Although one can easily find where their own
blood pressure readings fall on this table, this
monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category
Index that automatically compares each reading
to the defined levels and provides a helpful cue
if your reading falls into one of the stages that
could potentially indicate increased risk. For more
information, refer to the RISK CATEGORY INDEX
section of this manual.
Please note that cues provided by this monitor are
only intended to assist you in using this table. The
table and cues are only provided for convenience
to help you understand your non-invasive
blood pressure reading as it relates to the NIH
information. They are not a substitute for a medical
examination by your physician. It is important for
you to consult with your physician regularly. Your
physician will tell you your normal blood pressure
range as well as the point at which you may
actually be considered to be at risk.
