INTERPRETING YOUR RESULTS
Hypertension Indicator
This unit features our unique Hypertension Indicator. The World Health
Organization has established globally accepted standards for the
assessment of high or low blood pressure.
This chart can help you identify where a given blood pressure
measurement falls according to World Health Organization
standards. This chart should only be considered as a guideline;
always consult with your physician to interpret your individual results.
Never adjust your medication(s) dosage, or severely alter your diet or
exercise routine without consulting with your physician.
