Blood Pressure Percentiles for Boys (2 - 17 years)     Input:   Age   mo yr Height   cm in m Systolic BP   cmHg mmHg Diastolic BP   cmHg mmHg Results:   Height Percentile       Systolic BP Percentile     Diastolic BP Percentile       Threshold for Stage II hypertension* (defined as 99th percentile plus 5 mmHg) SBP Threshold     DBP Threshold                 Systolic BP Percentile Interpretation             Percentile < 90 : Normal Systolic Blood Pressure Percentile >= 90 and < 95 : Prehypertensive Systolic Blood Pressure            Percentile >= 95 : Hypertensive Systolic Blood Pressure   Diastolic BP Percentile Interpretation             Percentile < 90 : Normal Diastolic Blood Pressure Percentile >= 90 and < 95 : Prehypertensive Diastolic Blood Pressure            Percentile >= 95 : Hypertensive Diastolic Blood Pressure   In this calculator, the subject's blood pressure percentiles are based on age and height percentile.   Stage I hypertension is defined as either Systolic BP or Diastolic BP between the 95th percentile and the 99th percentile plus 5 mmHg. Stage II hypertension is defined as either Systolic BP or Diastolic BP greater than the 99th percentile plus 5 mmHg.   Children and adolescents whose BP exceeds 120/80 mmHg are also considered prehypertensive.   Related Results            Pull down to select a related equation and transfer values in common A-a Gradient     [ Age ] Amikacin Dosing to Produce Desired Peak and Trough Levels     [ Age, Height ] Amikacin Level Prediction from Maintenance Dosing     [ Age, Height ] Aminoglycoside Clearance Estimate     [ Age ] AUC Dose Calculation for Carboplatin (Calvert formula)     [ Age ] Blood Pressure Percentiles for Girls (2 -
