How is blood pressure considered to be at standard?

To determine how well a hypertensive patient’s blood pressure is controlled, doctors often use a technical term called blood pressure compliance. Blood pressure attainment is not the same as blood pressure within the normal range. First, the target value of blood pressure lowering – there are differences In general, the blood pressure can be gradually controlled to below 140/90mmHg as tolerated by the patient. For hypertensive patients with combined chronic kidney disease, diabetes mellitus, coronary heart disease or cerebrovascular disease, the blood pressure should be lowered to less than 130/80 mmHg. The target of blood pressure lowering for elderly people aged 65 and above is <150/90 mmHg, which can be further reduced if tolerated. Therefore, for different patients and different conditions, blood pressure needs to be controlled within different ranges. Second, the blood pressure should be lowered to achieve the "3 standards" blood pressure standards need to achieve a stable standard, morning standard and long-term standard. 1.Stable attainment The wrong concept of "the faster the better" must be corrected, and the blood pressure should be lowered to the target level within weeks to months. 2.Morning blood pressure As there is a diurnal pattern in human blood pressure, blood pressure rises gradually in the morning after waking up, generally reaching a peak at 8 ~ 10 a.m., called morning peak blood pressure, patients should develop the habit of taking blood pressure in the morning, so as to more accurately grasp whether the blood pressure is up to standard. However, there are some hypertensive patients, blood pressure rises significantly at night, it is recommended to perform 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, in order to grasp the pattern of blood pressure fluctuations, to guide the doctor to adjust the medication. 3.Long-term compliance Patients with hypertension need to adhere to long-term antihypertensive treatment to keep blood pressure within the target range in order to reduce or avoid the occurrence of adverse cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke). In addition, pay attention to diet, quit smoking and limit alcohol, scientific exercise and exercise, weight control, etc. is also important for long-term stable and standard control of blood pressure.
