Hypertension vs. Hypotension: Clinical Differentiation and Critical Thresholds

Blood pressure serves as a critical 'health indicator,' yet not everyone fully comprehends the distinctions between hypertension (high blood pressure) and hypotension (low blood pressure). This article provides a detailed explanation of these conditions and introduces the Yuwell 680B Blood Pressure Monitor—a WHO-compliant device, exclusively distributed by Vân Long Company—to ensure precise and safe at-home monitoring of your blood pressure readings."

Blood pressure serves as a critical "health indicator"

1. What is Blood Pressure? WHO-Standard Measurement Techniques

Blood pressure reflects the force exerted by blood against arterial walls and comprises two key indices:

Systolic pressure (maximum blood pressure): Pressure during cardiac contraction.
Diastolic pressure (minimum blood pressure): Pressure during cardiac relaxation.

Steps for Accurate At-Home Blood Pressure Measurement:

Sit and rest for 5 minutes prior to measurement, ensuring a relaxed posture.
Use the Yuwell 680B Blood Pressure Monitor (equipped with an automatic cuff and precision sensor technology) with the cuff properly fitted around the arm.
Perform 2–3 measurements at 2-minute intervals and record the average value.

2. WHO (2023) Blood Pressure Classification Table

Classification	Systolic (mmHg)	Diastolic (mmHg)
Hypotension	< 90	< 60
Normal	90-119	60-79
Prehypertension	120-129	80-84
Hypertension Stage 1	130-139	85-89
Hypertension Stage 2	≥ 140	≥ 90

Regular blood pressure monitoring facilitates early detection of health risks
