What it means
Systolic under 120 and diastolic under 80. The range with the lowest risk of heart attack and stroke. Both numbers fall in the same band here.
The other values
Pulse pressure, the gap between the two numbers, is 40. Mean arterial pressure is about 83.
When to act now
Chest pain, shortness of breath, back pain, weakness, numbness, vision change or trouble speaking means call emergency services, whatever the number. If you are pregnant, 140/90 or higher after 20 weeks needs a call to your care team.
