How is a confirmatory diagnosis for hypertension made?

Diagnosis of hypertension should be confirmed at 2 nd visit, usually 2 weeks after the first measurement if the SBP and/or DBP is ≥140 mmHg and/or ≥90 mmHg on both visits.

If the blood pressure is SBP ≥ 140 and/or DBP ≥ 90 mmHg, check in the left arm also. The arm with the higher reading should be used for measurements after that.

Patients with SBP ≥ 160 mmHg and/ or DBP ≥ 100 mmHg may be diagnosed with hypertension in a single visit.

All patients need to attend two visits to confirm a diagnosis of high blood pressure, except those with a blood pressure reading above 160/90 mmHg.
