Table 1. Proposed SSA classification of hypertension, using office blood pressure measurements.
Normal BP | High-normal | Grade 1 hypertension | Grade 2 hypertension | Grade 3 hypertension | |
SBP* | < 130 | 130–139 | 140–159 | 160–179 | > 180 |
DBP* | < 85 | 85–89 | 90–99 | 100–109 | > 110 |
BP, blood pressure; SBP systolic BP; DBP, diastolic BP. *Classification based on the presence of either or both SBP and DBP.
