RISK CATEGoRY INdICAToR
The U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services and the National
Institutes of Health have developed
a blood pressure standard, classifying
blood pressure ranges into 4 stages.
This unit is equipped with an innovative
blood pressure classification indicator,
which visually indicates the assumed risk
level (normal, prehypertension, stage 1
hypertension, or stage 2 hypertension)
of each reading. Symbols are described
below and classifications follow the
guidelines as described earlier in this
manual (page 7).
