Understanding Healthy Blood Pressure: What's Normal?
Diastolic blood pressure:
* Normal: 60–80 mm Hg
* Prehypertension: 80–89 mm Hg
* Hypertension: ≥ 90 mm Hg
Systolic blood pressure:
* Normal: 90–119 mm Hg
* Prehypertension: 120–129 mm Hg
* Hypertension: ≥ 130 mm Hg
Based on these ranges, 71 mm Hg is considered normal for diastolic blood pressure and 110 mm Hg is considered normal for systolic blood pressure. However, it is important to note that blood pressure can vary throughout the day and should be measured over time to get an accurate assessment.
