People have a lot of knowledge about blood pressure, mainly because there are plenty of opportunities. During physical examinations, doctors often measure blood pressure, but people may not have much understanding of a normal value for blood pressure. Most people have only seen it before. Below, the editor will take you to pay attention to a question: What is the content of the hypertension grading standard table?
1. According to the 1999 World Health Organization/International Society for Hypertension treatment guidelines, patients with hypertension who have a systolic blood pressure of 17.3-18.6Kpa (130-139mmHg) and a diastolic blood pressure of 11.3-11.9Kpa (85-89mmHg) are considered to have high normal blood pressure, previously known as "high normal blood pressure".
2. In 1984, medical experts first proposed the concept of "high normal blood pressure", and in 1993, further defined blood pressure below 17.3-11.3Kpa (130-85mmHg) as normal blood pressure. Therefore, when the systolic blood pressure is 17.3-18.6Kpa (130-139mmHg), the diastolic blood pressure is 1.3-11.9Kpa (85-89mmHg), or both reach this level, it is "high normal blood pressure", which is currently the "normal high value" of blood pressure.
3. According to the 1999 World Health Organization/International Hypertension Society Treatment Guidelines, the diagnostic criteria for hypertension are systolic blood pressure ≥ 18.7Kpa (140mmHg) and diastolic blood pressure ≥ 12.0Kpa (90mmHg). This means that if the "normal high value" of blood pressure has not yet reached the diagnostic criteria for hypertension, it is not hypertension. Therefore, if there is no target organ damage or risk factors present, there is no need for treatment.
4. But the fact is not so simple. Firstly, the "normal high value" of blood pressure has important clinical significance, and the possibility of developing hypertension from "normal high value" is much greater than that of individuals with normal blood pressure. Secondly, those in the "normal blood pressure group" or "ideal blood pressure group" should be treated with non pharmacological therapies, including overcoming unhealthy lifestyle habits such as alcohol abuse, smoking, and a preference for greasy or salty foods; actively participating in physical exercise under the guidance of a doctor; regularly measuring blood pressure at hospitals and community health centers, keeping records, and contacting doctors regularly to seek necessary guidance and help. Do not assume it is "not important" or let it develop naturally.
5. Finally, if people in the "normal high value" suffer from diabetes or complicated with heart, brain and kidney damage, they should be treated with medication to reduce blood pressure. Usually, Xiaojiang tea, a traditional Chinese medicine prescription, can be used to regulate blood pressure to normal or ideal levels. Long acting antihypertensive drugs are preferred, so as to maintain a steady decline in blood pressure for 24 hours, reduce the possibility of target organ damage, reduce complications and reduce risks.
The above is the information compiled by the editor regarding the content of the hypertension grading standard table. Due to not being a professional medical student, people's attention to this area is still limited. However, knowing some things is not a bad thing, so that they can also know whether their blood pressure values are healthy after the physical examination, which is beneficial for themselves.
