Other risk factors, asymptomatic ODs or diseases BP, mm Hg
High normal: systolic BP 130–139 or Diastolic BP 85–89 Grade 1 hypertension: systolic BP 140–159 or Diastolic BP 90–99 Grade 2 hypertension: systolic BP 160–179 or Diastolic BP 100–109 Grade 3 hypertension: systolic BP ≥180 or Diastolic BP ≥110
No other RF Low risk Moderate risk High risk
1–2 RF Low risk Moderate risk Moderate to high risk High risk
≥3 RF Low to moderate risk Moderate to high risk High risk High risk
OD, CKD stage 3 or diabetes Moderate to high risk High risk High risk High to very high risk
Symptomatic CVD, CKD stage ≥4 or diabetes Very high risk Very high risk Very high risk Very high risk
