Hypertension Diagnosis

Diagnosis of HYPERTENSION

Doctor will usually place an inflatable arm cuff around the arm and measure the blood pressure using a pressure-measuring gauge. The blood pressure reading has two numbers; upper number (systolic pressure) measures the pressure in arteries at the time of beating of heart whereas lower number (diastolic pressure) measures the pressure between two beats.

Blood pressure measurements fall into four general categories:

 

Systolic pressure

Diastolic pressure

Normal

Below 120 mm Hg

Below 80 mm Hg

Prehypertension

120 – 139 mm Hg

80 to 89 mm Hg

Stage 1 hypertension

140 to 159 mm Hg

90 to 99 mm Hg

Stage 2 hypertension

160 mm Hg or higher

90 to 99 mm Hg

  • 24-hour blood pressure monitoring test
  • Urine test (urinalysis)
  • Blood tests
  • Cholesterol test
  • Electrocardiogram — a test that measures the heart's electrical activity.
