Patient's question:
How many levels does high blood pressure have? How high does blood pressure need to be to be the most dangerous? How many levels does high blood pressure have?Doctor's answer:
Currently, hypertension is mainly divided into three levels, namely Stage 3, Stage 2, and Stage 1 hypertension. When systolic blood pressure is greater than 140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure is greater than 90 mmHg, it is classified as Stage 3. When systolic blood pressure is greater than 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure is greater than 100 mmHg, it is classified as Stage 2. If systolic blood pressure is greater than 180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure is greater than 110 mmHg, it is classified as Stage 1. Very high risk is not a classification of hypertension, but primarily refers to the probability of potentially experiencing severe complications such as cardiovascular or cerebrovascular stroke.
