Heart Rate & Blood Pressure

Heart Rate

The heart rate is the number of beats per minute (bpm) that the patient's heart makes.

We classify these into categories:

Pulse category	BPM	Condition
Green	46 - 119 BPM	Normal Pulse
Yellow	120 and above BPM	High Pulse
Red	45 BPM	Low Pulse
Black	0 BPM	No Pulse

Blood Pressure

Blood Pressure is measured by systolic and diastolic blood pressure - often expressed in the form ( systolic / diastolic)

You need to pay attention to the systolic and diastolic blood pressure to diagnose a condition. You can categorize blood pressure into categories as follows:

Blood pressure category	SYSTOLIC mm Hg	and/or	DIASTOLIC mm Hg
Normal	Less than 120	and	Less than 80
Elevated	120 - 129	and	Less than 80
High blood pressure (Stage 1)	130 - 139	or	80-89
High blood pressure (Hypertension) Stage 2	140 or higher	or	90 or higher
Hypertensive crisis	Higher than 180	and/or	Higher than 120
