Diagnostic criteria for hypotension

Hypotension is defined as a condition in which the systolic blood pressure of the upper extremity is less than 90mmHg and (or) the diastolic blood pressure is less than 60mmHg. Hypotension is defined as a condition in which the

blood pressure is lower than normal. Pathological hypotension may be related to pregnancy, body position change, eating, massive bleeding, thyroid disease, adrenal insufficiency, heart failure and other factors. Severe pathological hypotension can endanger life if not treated in time.

Hypotension patients should develop good living habits, regular rest, reasonable diet and appropriate exercise. Daily attention should be paid to monitoring blood pressure. If blood pressure values drop significantly, seek medical attention in time.
