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
