One reading isn’t enough to judge your blood pressure. Guidelines are based on several readings taken on different days.

For general wellness only. These results are estimates from published formulas and guidelines, not a diagnosis or medical advice. They may not suit pregnancy, children, older adults, athletes or people with health conditions. Talk to a qualified health professional about your health. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.
How to use the blood pressure checker and log
American Heart Association: normal below 120 and below 80; elevated 120–129 and below 80; stage 1 hypertension 130–139 or 80–89; stage 2 hypertension 140 or higher, or 90 or higher. Readings above 180 and/or above 120 need prompt attention. ESC 2024: non-elevated below 120/70; elevated 120–139 systolic or 70–89 diastolic; hypertension 140/90 or higher. ESH 2023: optimal below 120/80; normal 120–129/80–84; high-normal 130–139/85–89; grade 1, 2 and 3 hypertension from 140/90, 160/100 and 180/110. When the two numbers fall in different categories, the higher category is used.
- Sit quietly for a few minutes, then take your reading as your monitor’s instructions describe.
- Enter the top (systolic) and bottom (diastolic) numbers.
- See the category under each guideline.
- Optionally add the reading to your log to see averages over time.
Understanding your result
Each guideline gives its own label for the same reading, so check the one your doctor uses. Guidelines judge blood pressure on several readings over different days, which is why the log shows averages. A very high reading triggers the American Heart Association’s advice on what to do next.
