Good graphic. Remember to treat your patient not your numbers though. If they have a BP of 88/60 and a HR of 64 and are asymptomatic, this may be normal for them. This is especially true in athletes. On the hypertension side, initial BP treatment goals aren’t to completely bring blood pressure down to normal. This happens over time. So your patient who just started beta blockers may have a normal high BP. -- source link
