A person with pre–hypertension, upper systolic blood pressure between 120–140 mmHg and lower diastolic pressure between 80–90 mmHg, is more than three times likely to have a heart attack and 1.7 times more likely to have heart disease than a person whose blood pressure is lower than 120/80 mmHg, said Padma Shri and Dr B C Roy National Awardee Dr K K Aggarwal, President Heart Care Foundation of India and MTNL Perfect Health Mela.
Normal blood pressure is lower than 120/80 mmHg and hypertension is a blood pressure more than 140/90 mmHg or higher.
If pre–hypertension is aggressively treated, 47% of all heart attacks can be prevented. Lifestyle modifications such as weight control, regular physical activity and changes in diet are recommended for people with pre–hypertension. The importance of pre–hypertension has been listed as one of the top 10 recent advances in cardiology. Every effort should be made to lower the blood pressure below 120/80 mmHg.
