Blood pressure is an important indicator of cardiovascular health. Our calculator will help you determine normal blood pressure by age and estimate your current indicators.
Regular monitoring of blood pressure helps to detect deviations in a timely manner and prevent the development of serious diseases. Our calculator takes into account age norms and classifies your blood pressure according to international standards.

Systolic ≤ 130 and diastolic ≤ 85 mmHg. Art.
Systolic ≤ 140 and diastolic ≤ 90 mmHg. Art.
Systolic ≤ 160 and diastolic ≤ 100 mmHg. Art.
Systolic ≤ 180 and diastolic ≤ 110 mmHg. Art.
Systolic > 180 or diastolic > 110 mmHg. Art.
To obtain accurate results, it is important to measure your blood pressure correctly:
Our blood pressure calculator provides many benefits:
To maintain normal blood pressure, follow these recommendations:
Blood pressure is the force with which blood pushes against the walls of the arteries. It is measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) and consists of two values: systolic (upper, when the heart contracts) and diastolic (lower, when the heart relaxes).
Normal blood pressure is less than 130/85 mmHg. Art. However, the norm may vary depending on age, gender and individual characteristics of the body. For young people, the norm is 120/80 mmHg. Art., for the elderly up to 140/90 mm Hg is permissible. Art.
Systolic (upper) pressure is the maximum pressure in the arteries when the heart contracts and pumps blood into the arteries. Diastolic (lower) pressure is the minimum pressure in the arteries when the heart relaxes and fills with blood.
Hypertension (arterial hypertension) is a persistent increase in blood pressure above 140/90 mmHg. Art. This is a serious illness that requires medical supervision and treatment. Hypertension can be grade I (140-160/90-100), grade II (160-180/100-110) and grade III (>180/>110).
Hypotension is low blood pressure, usually below 100/60 mmHg. Art. for systolic or below 60 mm Hg. Art. for diastolic. Hypotension can cause dizziness, weakness and fatigue.
Healthy people are recommended to measure their blood pressure once a year. If there are risk factors or abnormalities, more often, on the recommendation of a doctor. For hypertension - daily at the same time (morning and evening) to monitor the effectiveness of treatment.
To measure blood pressure correctly: rest for 5 minutes, sit comfortably with your back straight, feet on the floor, and the cuff should be at heart level. Measure on both hands, use the larger value. Do not smoke or drink coffee 30 minutes before measurement.
Pressure above 180/110 mm Hg is considered dangerous. Art. (stage III hypertension) is a critical condition that requires immediate medical attention. Also dangerous is a sharp increase in blood pressure (hypertensive crisis), which can lead to a stroke or heart attack.
Yes, with age the permissible pressure values increase slightly. For people 20-40 years old, the norm is 120/80 mmHg. Art., for 40-60 years - up to 140/90 mm Hg. Art., for people over 60 years old - up to 150/90 mm Hg. Art. However, these values are conditional and depend on individual characteristics.
Prehypertension (high normal blood pressure) is a condition in which the systolic pressure is 130-140 mmHg. Art., and diastolic - 85-90 mm Hg. Art. This is not hypertension yet, but requires attention and lifestyle changes to prevent the development of hypertension.
Symptoms of hypertension may include: headache (especially in the morning), dizziness, tinnitus, floaters before the eyes, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath on exertion, heart pain. However, hypertension is often asymptomatic, so regular measurements are important.
Risk factors: heredity, age (over 40 years), overweight, smoking, alcohol abuse, sedentary lifestyle, excessive salt intake, stress, diabetes, kidney disease.
You can reduce blood pressure by: losing weight, reducing salt intake (up to 5 g per day), increasing physical activity (30-40 minutes per day), quitting smoking and alcohol, managing stress, eating healthy (fruits, vegetables, low-fat foods), getting enough sleep (7-9 hours).
A hypertensive crisis is a sharp increase in blood pressure to very high values (usually above 180/120 mm Hg) with symptoms of target organ damage (headache, blurred vision, chest pain, shortness of breath). Requires immediate medical attention.
Yes, moderate physical activity is good for hypertension: walking, swimming, cycling, yoga. However, before starting training, you should consult your doctor. Avoid high-intensity activities and heavy lifting, which can increase your blood pressure.
In your diary, write down: date and time of measurement, systolic and diastolic pressure, pulse, health, medication intake, physical activity. Measure your blood pressure at the same time (morning and evening) when you are at rest. This will help the doctor evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment.
Yes, stress can temporarily increase blood pressure due to the release of hormones (adrenaline, cortisol). Chronic stress can contribute to the development of hypertension. It is important to manage stress through relaxation, physical activity, adequate sleep, and breathing techniques.
Increase blood pressure: salt (sodium), alcohol, caffeine (in large quantities), fatty foods, processed foods, canned food, smoked meats, cheeses, pickles. To reduce blood pressure, a Mediterranean diet or DASH diet with an emphasis on fruits, vegetables, and whole grains is recommended.
Help lower blood pressure: foods rich in potassium (bananas, potatoes, beans), magnesium (nuts, seeds, green vegetables), omega-3 (fish), beets, garlic, green tea, dark chocolate (in moderation), berries. An overall balanced diet that is low in sodium is important.
Yes, hypertension usually requires constant medication to maintain normal blood pressure. Interruption of use may lead to increased blood pressure and complications. The doctor prescribes medications and dosage individually. Do not stop taking it without consulting your doctor.
Complete cure for hypertension is only possible with secondary hypertension (caused by other diseases, such as kidney disease). With essential (primary) hypertension, complete cure is rare, but effective control of blood pressure with medications and lifestyle changes is possible.
Yes, high blood pressure can damage the blood vessels in the retina, which can cause vision problems. During a hypertensive crisis, temporary loss of vision is possible. Regular blood pressure monitoring and treatment of hypertension are important to preserve vision.
Isolated systolic hypertension is a condition in which only the systolic pressure is elevated (usually above 140 mm Hg), and the diastolic pressure is normal (below 90 mm Hg). It often occurs in older people and requires treatment.
Blood pressure naturally fluctuates during the day: usually lower at night (during sleep), increases in the morning, can be higher during the day with activity and stress, and decreases in the evening. It is important to measure blood pressure at the same time to compare results.
“White coat” hypertension is an increase in blood pressure only when measured by a doctor, while at home the pressure is normal. This is due to anxiety. For accurate diagnosis, daily blood pressure monitoring or home measurements are recommended.
Yes, high blood pressure can damage the blood vessels in the kidneys, leading to poor kidney function and chronic kidney disease. On the other hand, kidney disease can cause hypertension. Blood pressure control is important to protect the kidneys.
High blood pressure is a major risk factor for stroke and myocardial infarction. It damages arteries, promotes the formation of blood clots and atherosclerosis. Controlling and treating hypertension significantly reduces the risk of these dangerous complications.
Yes, it is recommended to measure the pressure on both arms at the first measurement. The difference is 10-15 mm Hg. Art. between the hands may be normal. If the difference is greater, this may indicate problems with blood vessels. Use the larger value to estimate.
When choosing a tonometer: automatic tonometers with a shoulder cuff are preferable (more accurate), check the size of the cuff for the arm circumference, make sure it is certified, read reviews. Check the accuracy of the tonometer regularly at a service center.
To maintain normal blood pressure, the following are important: a healthy lifestyle (healthy diet low in salt, regular physical activity, quitting smoking and alcohol), weight control, stress management, adequate sleep (7-9 hours), regular blood pressure monitoring, and, if necessary, taking medications prescribed by your doctor.
