High
Blood Pressure Definition
Epidemiological studies have found an association between these levels and
an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, and reducing blood
pressure below these values is associated with a decreased risk of
disease.13 It is important to take several measurements over a six-month
period because blood pressure can be transiently elevated14.
The broad, normal distribution of blood pressure in the population
has major implications for the prevention and control of high blood
pressure in the population. First, it is important to reduce the
blood pressure of the whole population in addition to the individuals
with the highest levels.

Although the risk is higher among this latter group, there are many more
people in the population in the lower risk categories. Therefore, most of
disease associated with high blood pressure occurs among people
with borderline or mildly elevated blood pressure.
Second, whatever cut-off points are used to diagnose high blood
pressure, there will be some people with levels below this that are at
increased risk for heart disease. If the whole population is targeted to
reduce the risk factors for elevated blood pressure then these
people will not be missed.
