Arterial hypertension

Diagnosis

A person is hypertensive when he repeatedly has systolic blood pressure (the maximum) equal to or greater than 150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number) at or above 90 mmHg. The criteria may vary from person to person, depending on the disease the person is suffering.

Just one measurement of blood pressure is not sufficient to be diagnosed with high blood pressure. The tension varies with the circumstances (effort, posture, stress...) and therefore must be measured over several visits or by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). For the diagnosis of hypertension, all blood pressure values must be high.
