👶Blood pressure in children and adolescents

In younger people, blood pressure is assessed using   percentile curves   based on age, height, and sex. Approximate average values ​​are given below:

Age group Average systolic Average diastolic
1–3 years 80–110 mmHg 50–70 mmHg
4–6 years 85–115 mmHg 55–75 mmHg
7–10 years 90–120 mmHg 60–80 mmHg
11–13 years 95–125 mmHg 60–80 mmHg
14–18 years 100–135 mmHg 65–85 mmHg

A measurement is considered high in children if it   corresponds to at least the 95th percentile for their age, height and gender.
