Systolic and diastolic blood pressures should both be attained, e.g. <140/85 mmHg means less than 140 mmHg for systolic blood pressure and less than 85 mmHg for diastolic blood pressure Clinic BP (mmHg) No diabetes Diabetes Optimal treated BP pressure <140/85 <130/80 Audit Standard <150/90 <140/80 Audit standard reflects the minimum recommended levels of blood pressure control. Despite best practice, the Audit Standard will not be achievable in all treated hypertensives. For ambulatory (mean daytime) or home blood pressure monitoring - reducing these targets by ~10/5 is recommended.
