Seventy year olds with a blood pressure of 150mmHg are at risk.
Usually people say blood pressure 150mmHg, mostly refers to systolic blood pressure, while the normal systolic blood pressure should be less than 140mmHg, diastolic blood pressure should be less than 90mmHg. elevated blood pressure and stroke, coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular and cerebral vascular events are obviously related to, especially with diabetes mellitus, renal insufficiency.
Therefore, a systolic blood pressure of 150 mmHg in the elderly is classified as grade 1 hypertension, which carries a certain risk and requires moderate intervention. However, epidemiologic data show that the systolic blood pressure of the elderly increases with age, so the standard of blood pressure control for this group of people can be relaxed as appropriate. It is recommended to follow a low-salt and low-fat diet, monitor blood pressure regularly, and consult a doctor if there is any discomfort.
