New Regulations on Blood Pressure Standards 2022 Table

Hypertension is a cardiovascular syndrome, which is mainly characterized by an increase in systemic arterial pressure, including essential hypertension and secondary hypertension. The standard is that systolic blood pressure is higher than 140mmHg or diastolic blood pressure. When the blood pressure is higher than 90mmHg, symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, headache, fatigue, and neck stiffness may occur, and complications may also occur.

According to the latest estimates, the number of hypertensive patients in China has reached 270 million, including serious complications of hypertension including stroke, coronary heart disease, heart failure, and kidney disease, causing disability and The fatality rate is relatively high.

At present, about 95% of the people suffering from hypertension have essential hypertension. Essential hypertension is the result of the interaction of multiple genetic and environmental factors.

However, the current awareness rate, treatment rate and control rate of hypertension in my country are still at a low level. The awareness rate of hypertension is currently 51.6, the treatment rate is 45.8, and the control rate is 16.8. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the management of hypertension and strengthen the education of hypertension to strengthen the understanding of hypertension.

01 Standards for high blood pressure

In my country, the standard for high blood pressure is: without the use of antihypertensive drugs, the office blood pressure is measured three times on different days, and the systolic blood pressure is ≥140mmHg and (or) Diastolic blood pressure ≥90mmHg can be diagnosed as hypertension.

The normal range of human blood pressure is based on international standard units: the normal range of blood pressure: systolic blood pressure (SBP, commonly known as high pressure): 90~139mmHg, diastolic blood pressure (DBP, commonly known as low pressure): 60~89mmHg. The blood pressure unit is kilopascal (kPa), usually expressed in millimeters of mercury (mmHg), 1mmHg=0.133kPa; ideal blood pressure is systolic blood pressure <120mmHg, diastolic blood pressure <80mmHg; systolic blood pressure 120~139mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 80~89mmHg is normal High value.

In addition, for individuals aged 40 to 70 years old with blood pressure of 115/75 to 185/115mmHg, for every 20mmHg increase in SBP or 10mmHg increase in DBP, the risk of cardiovascular disease will increase exponentially.

02New blood pressure standards will be announced in 2022, which may no longer be 120/80. Take a test. Is your blood pressure high?

As people now have a certain degree of awareness and familiarity with clinical medical technology and medical concepts, it is generally believed that 120~80mmHg is the standard blood pressure. When blood pressure is controlled within this range, the body can will be healthier.

But in fact, the World Health Organization has formulated a new guideline based on the clinical symptoms of younger and middle-aged blood pressure, the ability of various pancreatic islets to secrete pancreatic islets, the normal transport levels of blood vessels, and the metabolic status of various hormones. The standard range of blood pressure is between 130 and 85mmHg.

Now the standard for high blood pressure has been adjusted to 130~85mmHg. When the human body is in a healthy state, the range is diastolic blood pressure 85~89 and systolic blood pressure 130~139.

In other words, when you measure your blood pressure and find that your blood pressure level falls within the above-mentioned range, it means that your blood pressure does not exceed the standard. However, if your blood pressure value is >130~85mmHg, you should Be alert, it may be high blood pressure.

03What is the most standard time period to measure blood pressure?

1. Before getting up in the morning: This time is not affected by exercise, emotion, diet, etc., so the blood pressure measurement value is closest to the blood pressure in the basic state of the body. Generally, after measurement, the blood pressure in this time period can be allow.

2. 6 to 10 a.m. and 4 to 8 p.m. are the two peak blood pressure periods of the day. For healthy people, blood pressure measured at this time will not exceed the normal range.

3. Unsuitable times for measuring blood pressure: activities, heavy meals, mood swings, coldness, too much heat, etc. may affect blood pressure, resulting in inaccurate blood pressure measurement and failure to truly reflect the physical condition.
