Detailed explanation-1: -A blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg or higher indicates high blood pressure (hypertension). When systolic and diastolic blood pressures fall into different categories, the higher category should be used to classify blood pressure level. For example, 160/80 mmHg would be stage 2 hypertension (high blood pressure).
Detailed explanation-2: -high blood pressure is considered to be from 140/90mmHg (or an average of 135/85mmHg at home) – or 150/90mmHg (or an average of 145/85mmHg at home) if you’re over the age of 80.
Detailed explanation-3: -Normal: SBP less than 120 and DBP less than 80mmHg; Elevated: SBP 120 to 129 and DBP less than 80mmHg; Stage 1 hypertension: SBP 130 to 139 or DBP 80 to 89mmHg; Stage 2 hypertension: SBP greater than or equal to 140 mmHg or greater than or equal to 90 mmHg.
