Blood pressure in children and adolescents
In younger people, blood pressure is measured by Percentile curves, which are based on age, height and gender, assessed. Below you will find approximate averages:
| 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 reading is considered high in children if it is at least 95th percentile for their age, height and gender.
