160 is not a blood pressure. 160 over 90 would be. And if your top pressure measurement is 160, you should consult your doctor immediately! Normal is considered 120 over 80, and they would prefer to see 115 over 75. Anything over 150 is considered pretty dangerous. Weight is 104? In kilograms? If that is pounds, it is pretty low and not something to worry about. That will depend on your height.
Blood pressure can vary widely during the day. A blood pressure reading of 132/70 in the morning can be 150/90 in the afternoon - or vice versa. Most people with high blood pressure do not experience any symptoms, which is why regular blood pressure checks are so important. With 160-210 mmHg range will kill you. But having over 140/90 is signs of high pressure.
Yes, blood pressure of 160/90 has the designation of the stage II hypertension for a person of any age as of now. The Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure is working on a new report and they plan to release in the spring of 2012.
Normal blood pressure is 120 over 80.Low blood pressure is 90 over 60.Your diastolic pressure is bit low
High blood pressure is measured as two numbers, systolic pressure over diastolic pressure. Any reading of 140/90 or higher is considered high blood pressure.
High blood pressure is defined as consistentently elevated blood pressure exceeding 140 over 90 mmHg -- a systolic pressure above 140 with a diastolic pressure above 90.YOur systolic is somewhat elevated,but not high enough to be overly concerned about.
That reading would indicate a high blood pressure, 120 over 80 would normal.
That means you have high blood pressure systolic should be around 90-140 diastolic should be around 60-90
Hypertension is diagnosed when multiple blood pressure readings over multiple visits are over 140/90.
Normal blood pressure is 120/80 or below. 120-139/80-90 is considered prehypertension. 140-59/90-99 is stage 1 hypertension and 160+/100 or more is stage 2 hypertension. If you have high blood pressure you should speak to your doctor about some lifestyle changes and/or medications.
blood pressure depends on the individual but the average blood pressure is around 120 over 80. so yours is a little bit high but not too bad.
