Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP)
If the two blood pressure measurements (systolic, diastolic) fall into separate
categories, your level is classified in the higher of the two categories. For
example, a Stage 2 systolic reading, but a diastolic pressure reading in the
normal range.

IMPORTANT:
• Do not be alarmed by temporarily high or low readings because
fluctuations in a person’s blood pressure are not uncommon. If possible,
measure and record your blood pressure at the same time every day, and
consult your physician if you have questions or concerns.
■ If abnormal variations in blood pressure are observed in measurement,
please consult your physician.
