What you should know about blood pressure

Blood pressure constantly changes throughout the day. It rises sharply in the early morning
and declines during the late morning. Blood pressure rises again in the afternoon and finally
drops to a low level at night. Also, it may vary in a short period of time. Therefore, readings
from successive measurements can fluctuate.
Blood pressure readings taken from a healthy 31-year -old male, measured at 5-minute intervals
Blood pressure measured in a doctor's office only provides a momentary value. Repeated
measurements at home better reflect one's actual blood pressure values under everyday
conditions.
Moreover, many people have a different blood pressure when they measure at home, because
they tend to be more relaxed than when in the doctor's office. Regular blood pressure
measurements taken at home can provide your doctor with valuable information on your
normal blood pressure values under actual «everyday» conditions.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) has set up the following standard blood pressure values
when measured at resting pulse.
Blood Pressure Normal
(mmHg) Values
SYS = systole up to 140
(upper value)
DIA = diastole up to 90
(lower value)
Mild Severe
Hypertension Hypertension
140-180 over 180
90-110 over 110
