Even with normal blood-pressure values, a regular self-check with your blood-pressure monitor is
recommended. In this way you can detect possible changes in your values early and react appropriately.
If you are undergoing medical treatment to control your blood pressure, please keep a record of the level of
your blood pressure by carrying out regular self-measurements at specific times of the day. Show these
values to your doctor. never use the results of your measurements to alter independently the drug
doses prescribed by your doctor.
Table for classifying blood pressure values in adults in accordance with the World Health Organization
(WHO) in 2003. Data in mmHg.

FURTHER InFoRMATIon

• I f your values are mostly standard under resting conditions but exceptionally high under conditions of
physical or psychological stress, it is possible that you are suffering from so-called «labile
hypertension». Please consult your doctor if you suspect that this might be the case.
• Correctly measured diastolic blood-pressure values above 120mmHg require immediate medical treatment.
2.3. What can be done, if regular increased/low values are obtained?
a) Please consult your doctor.
b) Increased blood-pressure values (various forms of hypertension) are associated long- and medium
term with considerable risks to health. This concerns the arterial blood vessels of your body, which are
endangered due to constriction caused by deposits in the vessel walls (Arteriosclerosis). A deficient
supply of blood to important organs (heart, brain, muscles) can be the result. Furthermore, with long-term
continuously increased blood-pressure values, the heart will become structurally damaged.
c) There are many different causes of the appearance of high blood pressure. We differentiate between
the common primary (essential) hypertension, and secondary hypertension. The latter group can be
ascribed to specific organic malfunctions. Please consult your doctor for information about the possible
origins of your own increased blood pressure values.
d) There are measures which you can take, not only for reducing a medically established high blood
pressure, but also for prevention. These measures are part of your general way of life:

< 100 < 60
100-120 60-80
120-130 80-85

140-159 90-99
