Internationally recognized guidelines for upper limit of normal home
blood pressure readings are as follows:
Home Guideline for Upper Limit of Normal BP
Systolic Blood Pressure 135 mmHg
Diastolic Blood Pressure 85 mmHg
This is a general guideline because blood pressure depends on
age and morbidity. A lower home blood pressure goal may be
recommended for certain patients, including diabetic patients,
pregnant women, and patients with renal failure.
The monitor is not intended to be a diagnostic device.
MORNING HYPERTENSION SYMBOL ( )
The Morning Hypertension Symbol is displayed if the morning average
reading for a week is above 135 for the Systolic Blood Pressure value
and/or 85 for the Diastolic Blood Pressure value when viewing the
Morning Averages and the Evening Averages in the memory.
Omron Healthcare recommends you contact your physician if the
MORNING HYPERTENSION SYMBOL appears on the display with
your measurement values.
