Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) Easily Check Your Blood Pressure Readings Against the JNC 7* Classification Blood Pressure Categories Stage 2 Hypertension e.g.: SBP 165 DBP 105 100 Stage 1 Hypertension e.g.: SBP 150 DBP 95 90 Prehypertension e.g.: SBP 130 DBP 85 80 Normal e.g.: SBP 115 DBP 75 120 140 160 Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) If the two blood pressure measurements (systolic, diastolic) fall into separate categories, your level is classified in the higher of the two categories. For example, a Stage 2 systolic reading, but a diastolic pressure reading in the normal range. *JNC 7: The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood Pressure National Institute of Health (NIH) Publication; No. 03-5233, May 2003 IMPORTANT: • Do not be alarmed by temporarily high or low readings because fluctuations in a person's blood pressure are not uncommon. If possible, measure and record your blood pressure at the same time every day, and consult your physician if you have questions or concerns. • If abnormal variations in blood pressure are observed in measurement, please consult your physician.

If the two blood pressure measurements (systolic, diastolic) fall into
separate categories, your level is classified in the higher of the two
categories. For example, a Stage ± systolic reading, but a diastolic
pressure reading in the normal range.

IMPORTANT:
Do not be alarmed by temporarily high or low readings because
fluctuations in a person’s blood pressure are not uncommon. If possible,
measure and record your blood pressure at the same time every day,
and consult your physician if you have questions or concerns.
If abnormal variations in blood pressure are observed in measurement,
please consult your physician.
