Definitions & Targets

Average home or ambulatory blood pressure readings persistently above 135/85mmHg (home readings) is consistent with hypertension
BP readings in the clinic room can be a little bit higher which is normal, so levels persistently above 140/90mmHg is consistent with hypertension.

Hypertension if left untreated can be associated with cardiovascular disease i.e. heart disease, heart attacks, angina, strokes and kidney problems. 

Target BPs vary depending on underlying conditions and age but should aim for less than 140/90mmHg (clinic) or less than 135/85mmHg (home).
