11. ASSESSING HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE FOR ADULTS
The following guidelines for assessing high blood pressure (without regard to age or gender)
have been established by the World Health Organization (WHO). Please note that other
factors (e.g. diabetes, obesity, smoking, etc.) need to be taken into consideration. Consult with
your physician for accurate assessment, and never change your treatment by yourself.
Note: It is not intended to provide a basis of any type of rush toward emergency
conditions/diagnosis based on the color scheme and that the color scheme is meant only to
discriminate between the different levels of blood pressure.
