The following pediatric blood pressure chart shows the normal ranges by age. Blood pressure readings are given as two numbers: The systolic blood pressure (the top number) equals the pressure in the arteries as the heart contracts.
High blood pressure is defined as average systolic BP and/or diastolic BP >/= 95 th percentile for age, gender and height on more than 3 occasions. Pre-hypertension is defined as SBP and/or DBP between 90 th and 95 th percentile. For adolescents, BP readings >/= 120/80 are considered to be pre-hypertensive. How prevalent is HTN in Children?
